Table_4_Variations in gut microbiota associated with changes in life-history traits of Daphnia galeata induced by fish kairomones.xlsx by Tae-June Choi (12000167)

“…Statistical analysis revealed that the relative abundance of the Pseudomonadaceae family significantly increased upon exposure to fish kairomone, while the relative abundance of the Comamonadaceae family significantly decreased. The decreased growth in genotype KB5 may be associated with a significant increase in Pseudomonas, a member of the family Pseudomonadaceae, which is generally deficient in essential fatty acids, potentially negatively impacting growth. …”
