Full-length 16S rRNA gene profiling of rumen microbial communities in Angus beef cattle receiving leucine supplementation
This project characterizes rumen microbial communities in female Angus beef cattle using PacBio sequencing of near-full-length 16S rRNA gene amplicons generated with primers 27F and 1492R. Twelve rumen fluid samples were collected in October 2023 in Bijie, Guizhou, China, including six control samples (L01-L06) and six samples from cattle receiving leucine supplementation (L11-L16).
