Amplicon-based metagenomic association analysis of gut microbiota in relation to egg-laying period and breeds of hens

Amplicon-based metagenomic association analysis of gut microbiota in relation to egg-laying period and breeds of hens

Abstract Background The gut microbiota plays an essential role in maintaining gut homeostasis and improving performance, with the composition of microbial communities visibly differing across different laying stages in hens and significantly correlating with egg production. To gain further insights...
