I. Introduction. II. Methods. Experimental set-up. DNA extraction and next-generation sequencing. Sequence data processing and analysis. III. Results. Phase I – Mouse decomposition on soil with an endogenous microbial community (untreated soil). Phase I – Mouse decomposition on untreated versus sterile soils substrates (untreated vs. sterilized treatment groups). Phase II – decomposition of mice on three contrasting soils. Phase III – decomposition microbiomes of different host species. IV. Conclusions. V. References. VI. Dissemination of research findings.
