is an emerging parasitic nematode of dogs, red foxes, and other wild canids. The severity of infection in dogs ranges from subclinical to fatal cardiopulmonary and bleeding disorders collectively known as canine angiostrongylosis. A symbiotic relationship between microorganisms such as bacteria and their eukaryotic hosts is commonly observed in nature. The mutualistic role of bacteria has been documented in plant-parasitic nematodes, gastrointestinal nematodes, and filarial nematodes. The importance of the bacteria for the survival of these parasites has been demonstrated with antibiotic treatments. To characterize associated bacteria of adult parasites, 36 individual worm samples were used. The worms were extracted from foxes hunted either in the city or in the rural regions within the Canton of Zurich, Switzerland. DNA was isolated and the V3/V4 hypervariable region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified. Sequenced Illumina MiSeq reads were analysed using QIIME2. The data were used to profile the abundance and diversity of microbial communities in worms originating from either rural or urban foxes.
是一种在狗、赤狐和其他野生犬科动物中出现的寄生线虫。狗感染后的严重程度从亚临床症状到致命的心肺和出血性疾病不等，这些疾病统称为犬血管圆线虫病。自然界中普遍观察到细菌等微生物与其真核宿主之间的共生关系。细菌在植物寄生线虫、胃肠线虫和丝虫线虫中的互利作用已有文献记载。抗生素治疗已证明细菌对这些寄生虫生存的重要性。为了鉴定成年寄生虫的相关细菌，使用了36个单独的蠕虫样本。这些蠕虫是从在瑞士苏黎世州城市或农村地区捕猎的狐狸身上提取的。分离出DNA，并扩增细菌16S rRNA基因的V3/V4高变区。使用QIIME2分析测序的Illumina MiSeq读数。这些数据用于分析来自农村或城市狐狸的蠕虫中微生物群落的丰度和多样性。
