Abstract: Terrestrial adaptation of blue-spotted mudskipper (Boleophthalmus Periophthalmodon; BP) and giant-fin mudskipper (Periophthalmus magnuspinnatus; PM), two representative amphibious fishes, has been previously reported by us at a genomic level. However, their metagenomics of gastrointestinal (GI) microbiome has not been studied yet, and the roles of GI microbiota in their adaptation to the terrestrial life and in their special immunity are worth exploring.
