Evidence of host specificity in Lactobacillus johnsonii genomes and its influence on probiotic potential in poultry

ABSTRACT: To date, the selection of candidate strains for probiotic development in production animals has been largely based upon screens for desired phenotypic traits. However, increasing evidence indicates that the use of host-specific strains may be important, because coevolution with the animal...
