V4 region of 16S rRNA gene sequence reads of cow uterus microbiota
In the present research, the reproductive system of cows in Peru was subjected to a comparative analysis of their uterine microbiota with a Metataxonomic approach (using the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene MiSeq high throughput sequencing technology). The objective of this study is to analyze and compare the bacterial composition and diversity of the uterus microbiota of two cow segments (uterine body and cranial half of the uterine horn), which are important for the potential discovery of microbial biomarkers that could be shared or present in one of these segments.
