Abstract

The maternal environment, during the prenatal and postnatal periods, is a determinant of offspring development and health. Perturbations during these periods can affect maternal behaviors and maternal–infant bonding, and also impair transmission of maternal microbiota to the offspring. Impaired microbiota has been associated with alterations of offspring cognitive development and behavior.
