The Gut Microbiota composition of Feral and Tamworth Pigs determined using High-Throughput Culturomics and Metagenomics Reveals Compositional Variations When Compared to the Commercial Breeds

2019-08-24

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial communities in the hindguts of pigs have a profound impact on health and disease. Yet very limited studies have been performed outside intensive swine farms to determine pig gut microbiome composition in natural populations. Feral pigs represent a unique situation where the microbiome structure can be observed outside the realm of modern agriculture. Additionally, Tamworth pigs that freely forage were in...
