Wild Animal Reproductive Microbiomes (EvolSWARM)
Our view of microbes has recently undergone a paradigm shift (the so-called ‘microbiome revolution’). Previously seen as unwanted harbingers of disease, it is now widely recognised that microbes can be beneficial and that the millions of microbes living in and on the bodies of animals and plants (i.e., the microbiome) can have profound effects on host biology.
