This study illustrated a clear diversity‐function relationships in the gut microbiota of cultured obscure puffer Takifugu obscurus, and it has implicated in a strong correlation between feed‐borne bacteria and host growth rate. These results provide a new insight into aquaculture of fugu and other economically important fishes, as well as a better understanding of host‐microbe interactions in the vertebrate gastrointestinal tract.
