Effect of Headstarting Eggstrands of the Endangered Houston Toad (<i>Bufo</i> = [<i>Anaxyrus</i>] <i>houstonensis</i>) from a Captive Assurance Colony on Native Breeding Pond Microbiomes

Effect of Headstarting Eggstrands of the Endangered Houston Toad (<i>Bufo</i> = [<i>Anaxyrus</i>] <i>houstonensis</i>) from a Captive Assurance Colony on Native Breeding Pond Microbiomes

The bacterial community in water from the Houston-toad captive assurance colony held at the Houston Zoo, TX, was used for comparison to the native pond bacterial composition by Ilumina-based 16S rRNA V3 amplicon sequencing. We analyzed composite sediment–water samples from native breeding ponds befo...
