Humpback whales harbor a highly novel and endemic gut microbiome that adapts to periods of fasting during migration
Abstract Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are cosmopolitan in distribution and most populations migrate between foraging and breeding grounds each year1,2. As capital breeders, many humpbacks reduce foraging behavior and potentially fast for a few months of the year3. Here, we present a comparative genomic analysis of the gut microbiomes from humpbacks on two breeding grounds: Gulf of California, where feeding is common4-6, and Hawaii, where feeding is extremely rare7.
