Assessing the impact of broiler genotype on cecal and tracheal microbiome composition using full-length 16S rRNA sequencing
This study examined the tracheal and cecal microbiome composition across three broiler chicken genotypes, including a heritage New Hampshire * Columbian cross (NHC) and modern Ross * Ross 308 (R308) and Ross YP * Ross 708 (R708) broilers, using full-length 16S rRNA sequencing.
