摘要/Abstract

摘要： 哺乳动物的肠道微生物为宿主提供了许多益处。为探究同域分布物种的生态适应机制，本研究通过16S rRNA测序技术和预测性宏基因组学技术，对阿拉善荒漠区同域分布的两种优势跳鼠——三趾跳鼠（Dipus sagitta）和五趾跳鼠（Orientallactaga sibirica）的肠道菌群进行比较分析。研究结果表明三趾跳鼠的α-多样性指数显著高于五趾跳鼠，且两者菌群结构存在显著差异。LEfSe分析发现52个差异显著的分类单元，其中三趾跳鼠富集的瘤胃球菌科（Ruminococcaceae）和颤螺旋菌科（Oscillospiraceae）助其降解植物纤维素。而五趾跳鼠富集的硫弧菌科（Desulfovibrionaceae）和毛螺菌科（Lachnospiraceae）则支持其对高蛋白与几丁质食物的硫代谢适应。功能预测显示两者菌群核心功能相似，均以代谢功能为主，尤其在合成必需氨基酸方面具有优势。本研究揭示了两种同域共存的荒漠啮齿动物通过肠道菌群分化实现生态位分离的适应策略，为理解同域物种共存机制提供了微生物学视角。

Abstract: The gut microbiota of mammals provides numerous benefits to their hosts. To investigate the ecological adaptation mechanisms of sympatric species， this study compared the gut microbiota of two dominant jerboa species co-distributed in the Alxa Desert region-the Northern Three-toed Jerboa （Dipus sagitta） and the Siberian Five-toed Jerboa （Orientallactaga sibirica）-using 16S rRNA sequencing and predictive metagenomics. Analysis revealed that the α diversity indices of the gut microbiota in D. sagitta were significantly higher than those in O. sibirica， and their microbial structures differed significantly. LEfSe analysis identified 52 taxa showing significant differences between the two species. Specifically， Ruminococcaceae and Oscillospiraceae were enriched in D. sagitta， potentially aiding in the degradation of plant cellulose， whereas Desulfovibrionaceae and Lachnospiraceae were enriched in O. sibirica， likely supporting sulfur metabolism related to high-protein and chitin-rich diets. Functional prediction indicated that the core functions of the gut microbiota in both species were highly similar， dominated by metabolic functions， particularly the synthesis of essential amino acids. This study reveals how gut microbiota divergence supports niche separation and ecological adaptation in two sympatric desert rodents， which provides new microbiological insights into the coexistence mechanisms of sympatric species.
