Effect of Doxycycline Use in the Early Broiler Production Cycle on the Microbiome

Effect of Doxycycline Use in the Early Broiler Production Cycle on the Microbiome

16S rRNA amplicon sequencing was used to investigate changes in the broiler gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota throughout the rearing period and in combination with antibiotic treatment. Thirty birds (from a commercial flock) were removed at multiple points throughout the rearing period on days...
