Selection for high metabolic rate reduces gut microbiota responsiveness to dietary restriction in bank voles
Host-microbiota interactions are crucial in adapting to environmental changes, such as fluctuating energy availability. Yet, the extent to which hosts and their microbiota exhibit coordinated plasticity in response to transient energy limitation remains unclear. Here, we examined the capacity for parallel reversible plasticity in hosts and gut microbiota to temporary dietary restriction in hosts…
