Genomic analysis on broiler-associated <i>Clostridium perfringens</i> strains and caecal microbiome profiling reveals key factors linked to poultry Necrotic Enteritis
2019-07-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Clostridium perfringens is a key pathogen in poultry-associated necrotic enteritis (NE). To date there are limited Whole Genome Sequencing based studies describing broiler-associated C. perfringens in healthy and diseased birds. Moreover, changes in the caecal microbiome during NE is currently not well characterised. Thus, the aim of this present study was to investigate C. perfringens virul...
