Species and functional composition of cecal microbiota and resistance gene diversity in different Yunnan native chicken breeds: A metagenomic analysis

Species and functional composition of cecal microbiota and resistance gene diversity in different Yunnan native chicken breeds: A metagenomic analysis

The gut microbiota of chickens not only modulates host immune function and production performance through nutrient metabolism but also serves as a reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), whose accumulation exacerbates bacterial resistance. This study integrated 108 cecal microbiome samples...
