Impact of industrial production system parameters on chicken microbiomes: mechanisms to improve performance and reduce <i>Campylobacter</i>
2020-05-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> The factors affecting host-pathogen ecology in terms of the microbiome remain poorly studied. Chickens are a key source of protein with gut health heavily dependent on the complex microbiome which has key roles in nutrient assimilation and vitamin and amino acid biosynthesis. The chicken gut microbiome may be influenced by extrinsic production system parameters such as Placement Birds/m 2 (st...
