Community dynamics in the gut: an interplay of extrinsic and intrinsic factors

Jigyasa ARORA（Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University）

Gut microbial communities are shaped by a variety of factors such as host ecology and physiology, and interactions among microbial community members. In this symposium, we aim to explore the gut community responses to extrinsic and intrinsic factors by bringing together researchers working on a range of taxonomic groups. Specifically, we will focus on themes such as the role of diet and environmental factors in maintaining social insects and Japanese macaque monkeys gut communities; as well as intrinsic factors such as microbial competition in plant-sucking stinkbugs and microbial diversity mediated functional redundancy in the termite gut. This symposium seeks to encourage discussion about gut microbial community dynamics across systems.
