Comparative research of intestinal microbiota diversity and body mass regulation in Eothenomys miletus from different areas of Hengduan mountain regions.

ABSTRACT: In order to investigate the effects of different areas on intestinal bacterial diversity and body mass regulation in Eothenomys miletus from Hengduan mountain regions, and to explore the community structure and diversity of intestinal microflora and their role in body mass regulation. E. miletus was collected from five areas including Deqin (DQ), Xianggelila (XGLL), Lijiang (LJ), Jianchuan (JC), and Dali (DL), we used 16S rRNA sequencing technology combined with physiological and morphological methods to study the intestinal microbiota diversity, abundance and community structure of the intestinal bacteria in winter, and to explore the influence of geographical factors, physiological indicators including food intake, resting metabolic rate (RMR), non-shivering thermogenesis (
