title: Gut metagenome of Meleagris gallopavo: Adult cecum
design: Day-old poults were randomly distributed into five treatments (n=8/treatment). Negative Control (NC; -SH, without any supplementation), Positive Control (PC; +SH, without any supplementation), LAB (+SH, +7log CFU/mL Lactobacillus), PF (+SH, +7log CFU/mL Propionibacterium), and VAC (+SH, +Salmonella vaccine). On the 11th week, groups except NC were challenged with SH (8log CFU/turkey) via crop gavage. On the 12th week, cecal content samples were collected for DNA extraction. The DNA library prepared from NexteraXT was shotgun metagenomic sequencing was done on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 2x150 bp platform.
