“…30 This may lead to changes in the production of metabolites that are benecial to the host, thereby affecting the nutrient absorption, digestion, and immune processes of the host. 31 The least experimental concentration (20 mg L −1 ) did not induce signicant changes in the log phase growth, suggesting that the current environmental concentrations of PS-MPs does not have a considerable impact on the growth of B. tropicus ACS1 strains. But, depending upon the extend of plastic contamination of the medium, the microplastic presence in the gut of the host organisms can vary.…”

“…Generally, the microbiota composition and functions of individual calf could be attributed to environmental, maternal, and host factors ( Song et al, 2021 ). In detail, environmental factors include the farm environment ( O'hara et al, 2020 ), the processing of colostrum and milk (fresh vs. pasteurized; Song et al, 2019 ), and feed additives in the milk ( Badman et al, 2019 ; Wang et al, 2022 ). Maternal factors consist of the parity of the dam, maternal amniotic fluid ( DiGiulio, 2012 ), placenta ( Aagaard et al, 2014 ), as well as maternal colostrum ( Yeoman et al, 2018 ).…”

This study investigated the effect of colostrum feeding time on the colon digesta microbiome of 2-day-old dairy calves using whole-genome-based metagenome sequencing, aiming to understand the dynamic changes of the colon microbiome when the colostrum feeding is delayed. In total, 24 male Holstein calves were grouped to different pasteurized colostrum feeding time treatments randomly: TRT0h (45 min after birth, n = 7); TRT6h (6 h after birth, n = 8); and TRT12h (12 h after birth, n = 9). Bacteria, archaea, eukaryotes, and viruses were identified in the colon microbiome, with bacteria (99.20%) being the most predominant domain. Streptococcus, Clostridium, Lactobacillus, Ruminococcus, and Enterococcus were the top five abundant bacteria genera. For colon microbiome functions, 114 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways were identified, with nutrients metabolism-related functions “carbohydrate metabolism,” “amino acid metabolism,” “metabolism of cofactors and vitamins,” “metabolism of terpenoids and polyketides,” and “metabolism of other amino acids” being the top five secondary level of KEGG hierarchy functions. When colon microbiomes were compared, they were not affected by delaying first colostrum feeding at both taxonomic and functional levels. However, distinct clusters of colon microbiome profiles were shown based on PERMANOVA analysis despite of different colostrum feeding treatment, suggesting the individualized responses. Moreover, the relative abundance of microbial taxa, microbial functions, and differentially expressed genes was compared between the two distinct clusters, and different relationships were observed among host differentially expressed genes, differential levels of microbial taxa, and microbial functions between the two clusters. Our results suggest that the host may play an important role in shaping the colon microbiome of neonatal dairy calves in response to the early life feeding management. Whether the observed colon microbiome shifts affect gut health and function in the long term requires further research.

“…In addition, we constructed the quality libraries with a single peak and concentration of more than 2 nM using a bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, United States) and quantitative PCR (qPCR). At last, the qualified library was sequenced on the Hiseq6000 platform (Illumina, United States), targeting the sequences with paired-end reads ( Wang et al, 2022 ).…”

Weining cattle is a precious species with high tolerance to cold, disease, and stress, and accounts for a large proportion of agricultural economic output in Guizhou, China. However, there are gaps in information about the intestinal flora of Weining cattle. In this study, high-throughput sequencing were employed to analyze the intestinal flora of Weining cattle (WN), Angus cattle (An), and diarrheal Angus cattle (DA), and explore the potential bacteria associated with diarrhea. We collected 18 fecal samples from Weining, Guizhou, including Weining cattle, Healthy Angus, and Diarrheal Angus. The results of intestinal microbiota analysis showed there were no significant differences in intestinal flora diversity and richness among groups (p > 0.05). The abundance of beneficial bacteria (Lachnospiraceae, Rikenellaceae, Coprostanoligenes, and Cyanobacteria) in Weining cattle were significantly higher than in Angus cattle (p < 0.05). The potential pathogens including Anaerosporobacter and Campylobacteria were enriched in the DA group. Furthermore, the abundance of Lachnospiraceae was very high in the WN group (p < 0.05), which might explain why Weining cattle are less prone to diarrhea. This is the first report on the intestinal flora of Weining cattle, furthering understanding of the relationship between intestinal flora and health.

Effects of Milk Replacer-Based Lactobacillus on Growth and Gut Development of Yaks’ Calves: a Gut Microbiome and Metabolic Study

Abstract: The host microbiome is a composite of the trillion microorganisms colonizing host bodies. It can be impacted by various factors, including diet, environmental conditions, and physical activities.
