Cecal microbiota transplantation: unique influence of cecal microbiota from divergently selected inbred donor lines on cecal microbial profile, serotonergic activity, and aggressive behavior of recipient chickens
BackgroundAccumulating evidence from human trials and rodent studies has indicated that modulation of gut microbiota affects host physiological...

Chicken cecal microbiota reduces abdominal fat deposition by regulating fat metabolism
Cecal microbiota plays an essential role in chicken health. However, its contribution to fat metabolism, particularly in abdominal fat deposition,...

Cecal microbiota composition differs under normal and high ambient temperatures in genetically distinct chicken lines
Modern broilers, selected for high growth rate, are more susceptible to heat stress (HS) as compared to their ancestral jungle fowl (JF). HS affects...

Dynamic effects of black soldier fly larvae meal on the cecal bacterial microbiota and prevalence of selected antimicrobial resistant determinants in broiler chickens
BackgroundWe had earlier described the growth-promoting and -depressive effects of replacing soybean meal (SBM) with low (12.5% and 25%) and high...

Dietary Supplementation of Brevibacillus laterosporus S62-9 Improves Broiler Growth and Immunity by Regulating Cecal Microbiota and Metabolites
Brevibacillus laterosporus has been added as a direct-fed microbiota to chicken. Yet, few studies have reported the effects of B. laterosporus on...

Dietary silymarin improves performance by altering hepatic lipid metabolism and cecal microbiota function and its metabolites in late laying hens
BackgroundLiver lipid dysregulation is one of the major factors in the decline of production performance in late-stage laying hens. Silymarin (SIL),...

Disentangling the causal relationship between rabbit growth and cecal microbiota through structural equation models
BackgroundThe effect of the cecal microbiome on growth of rabbits that were fed under different regimes has been studied previously. However, the...

Dietary threonine and lysophospholipid supplement in broiler chickens: effect on productive performance, carcass variables, cecal microbiota activity, and jejunal morphology
The objective of this experiment was to investigate the efficacy of lysophospholipid (LPL) in combination with different levels of threonine (Thr) on...

Changes in the gene expression and methylation in chicken cecal tonsils after in ovo administration of bioactive substances
Cecal tonsils are the main organs which generate an immune response and also the part of the GALT, thus they are in the close proximity of the...

Dietary ellagic acid ameliorated Clostridium perfringens-induced subclinical necrotic enteritis in broilers via regulating inflammation and cecal microbiota
BackgroundSubclinical necrotic enteritis (SNE), a common intestinal disease of broiler caused by Clostridium perfringens , could reduce production...
-
Combined effect of microbially derived cecal SCFA and host genetics on feed efficiency in broiler chickens
BackgroundImproving feed efficiency is the most important goal for modern animal production. The regulatory mechanisms of controlling feed efficiency...
