Loggerhead sea turtles are ancient marine reptiles inhabiting the oceans worldwide. They are colonized by microorganisms both in the gastrointestinal tract and on their carapace and skin. In this thesis that consists of four scientific publications, the loggerhead sea turtle-associated diatom and bacterial communities were investigated by high-throughput sequencing of chloroplast rbcL gene and 16S rRNA gene, and cultivation. The culture-independent approach has shown that loggerheads harbor diverse but stable bacterial communities in their cloaca, and that the oral microbiota reflects the turtle’s environment. The carapace and skin harbor complex microbial communities often rich in as yet unclassified taxa. Diatoms isolated from cara...
