Microbiota in the coelomic fluid of two common coastal starfish species and characterization of an abundant Helicobacter-related taxon
Abstract Marine invertebrates associate with diverse microorganisms. Microorganisms even inhabit coelomic fluid (CF), namely, the fluid filling the main body cavity of echinoderms. The CF microbiota potentially impacts host health and disease. Here, we analysed the CF microbiota in two common coasta...
