Abstract Background Maintaining gut health is a persistent and unresolved challenge in the poultry industry. Given critical role of chicken performance welfare, there pressing need to identify effective intervention (GHI) strategies ensure optimal outcomes farming. In this study, across three broiler production cycles, we compared metagenomes broilers provided with ionophores (as control group) against birds subjected five different GHI combinations involving vaccination, probiotics,...
This article focuses the recovery of prokaryotic organisms including bacteria and archaea from 9 different groups chicken raised in farm setups Pakistan. The comprise three breeds (Broilers, White Layers, Black Australorp) farming that include antibiotic-free control, commercial (open controlled shed), backyard farms. We have recovered 569 Metagenomics-Assembled Genomes (MAGs) with a completeness ≥50% contamination ≤10%. For each MAG, functional annotations were obtained KEGG modules,...
