Alien species can host diverse microbial communities. These associated microbiomes may be important in the invasion process and their analysis requires a holistic community-based approach. We analysed the skin and gut microbiome of Eleutherodactylus johnstonei from native range populations in St Lucia and exotic range populations in Guadeloupe, Colombia, and European greenhouses along with their respective environmental microbial reservoir through a 16S metabarcoding approach.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Clara Arranz Aveces"

  • - Clara Arranz Aveces' recent research focuses on the role of microbiomes in alien amphibian species, specifically analyzing how these microbial communities may impact the invasion processes of such species.
  • - In her study titled "From Alien Species to Alien Communities: Host- and Habitat-Associated Microbiomes in an Alien Amphibian," she employs a comprehensive 16S metabarcoding approach to investigate both skin and gut microbiomes of Eleutherodactylus johnstonei across various environments.
  • - The findings suggest that the associated microbiomes can be crucial for understanding ecological interactions and the success of invasive species, indicating the need for a community-based approach in biodiversity research.
