Gut Microbial Dynamics during Conventionalization of Germfree Chicken

Gut Microbial Dynamics during Conventionalization of Germfree Chicken

ABSTRACT A gnotobiotic Gallus gallus (chicken) model was developed to study the dynamics of intestinal microflora from hatching to 18 days of age employing metagenomics. Intestinal samples were collected from a local population of feral chickens and administered orally to germfree 3-day-old chicks....
