Methane emissions from pigs account for 10% of total methane production livestock in China. not only contribute to global warming, as it has 25 times the warming potential (GWP) CO2, but also represent approximately 0.1~3.3% digestive energy loss. Methanogens play an important role maintaining balance gut microbiome. The large intestines are main habitat microbiome pigs. Thus, better understand mechanism and mitigation, generic-specific physio-ecological characteristics (including redox...
The acquisition and development of the mammalian microbiome early in life are critical to establish a healthy host-microbiome symbiosis. Despite recent advances understanding microbial sources infants, relative contribution various colonization gut microbiota pigs remains unclear. Here, we longitudinally sampled 20 sow-piglet pairs (three piglets per sow) reared under identical conditions from multiple body sites surrounding weaning environment birth 28 days postpartum (1,119 samples total)....
Bacterial speck caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato is a serious foliar disease on tomato. However, it still unknown how organic fertilizers application mediates plant defense against pathogens altering the composition of soil microbial community. We conducted 2-cycle pot experiment involving chemical and tracked pathogen incidence. Using microbiome sequencing, we then compared differences in bulk rhizosphere communities. The results showed that, with soils amended fertilizer,...
The microbiota in the cecum of laying hens is crucial for host digestion, metabolism, and odor gas production. results recent studies have suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) can regulate gene expression gut microbiota. In present study, profiles host-derived miRNAs cecal content two hen breeds; Hy-line Gray Lohmann Pink, which dissimilar H2S production, were characterized; their effects on production by regulating microbiota-associated genes demonstrated. differential microbial serine...
Soil aggregates (SAs) are the main site for soil organic carbon (SOC) fixation, and land plastic pollution is increasingly causing many problems. The effects of on SAs SOC seem to be significant, but there still a lack relevant research. This study investigated microplastic precursors (namely, oversized microplastics (OMPs) with different shapes sizes) “plastic contamination layer” (PCL) formed by OMPs formation properties particle sizes in whole system. results showed that PCL had an effect...
Abstract BackgroundThe gut microbiota plays a key role in the host metabolic thermogenesis by activating uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and increasing browning process of white adipose tissue, especially cold environment. However, crosstalk between pigs, which lack functional UCP1 making them susceptible to cold, has rarely been illustrated. We used male piglets as model evaluate response stress via microbiota. ResultsWe found that thermogenesis insulin resistance with increased serum...
Abstract Background : The microbiota in the cecum of laying hens is critical for substance metabolism and odor gas production. Recent studies have suggested that host miRNAs can regulate gene expression gut microbiota. profiles host-derived cecal content two hen breeds, Hy-line Gray Lohmann Pink, which dissimilar H 2 S production, were characterized, their possible effects on production by regulating related genes demonstrated. Results differential microbial serine O-acetyltransferase,...

Abstract BackgroundAs an important part of biological rhythm, the circadian rhythm gut microbiota plays a crucial role in host health. However, few studies have determined associations between and laying hens. The purpose this experiment was to investigate feces hens.ResultsFeces samples were collected from ten hens at nine different time points (06:00-12:00-18:00-00:00-06:00-12:00-18:00-00:00-06:00) demonstrate diurnal oscillation microbiota. We described phenomenon rhythmicity based on 16S...
