16S rRNA amplicon sequencing was used to characterize mucosa- and digesta-associated microbiota in the hindgut (cecum, colon and rectum) of pre-weaned dairy calves Targeted loci
The aim of the present study was to explore the hindgut microbial composition and fermentation parameters during the pre-weaned period and studied the association between the hindgut microbiota and microbial fermentation from birth up to 6 weeks of life.
