attributes.tag: Sample collection method
attributes.value: We sampled cloacal bacteria by flushing the cloaca with 1 ml of sterile phosphate-buffered saline solution. This was performed by gently inserting the tip of a sterile needleless syringe 5 mm into the cloaca, injecting the saline solution and drawing it out again. We also collected control samples by collecting empty sterile tubes, blank swabs or by injecting saline solution directly into sterile tubes to control for any possible contamination coming from the manipulation or the material. All samples were stored at −20°C until molecular analyses.
