Microbial profiling using metagenomic assembly
… technology to the characterization of complex microbial communities has profoundly affected our appreciation of microbial diversity. The explosive growth of microbial sequence data has also necessitated advances in bioinformatic methods for profiling microbial communities. Data aggregation …

The BioLighthouse: Reusable Software Design for Bioinformatics
… dependence and data-scale dependence with a microbial profiling pipeline. The microbial profiling pipeline consisted of Cutadapt, FLASH2, and DADA2. The pipeline was tested on 3 canola root and soil microbiome datasets with differing orders of magnitude of data: 1 sample, 10 samples, and 100 …

Bacterial profiles and ex vivo effects of Salmonella Heidelberg on leukocyte function in turkey purebred lines
… was significant bactericidal activity of PBMCs. Microbial profiling of cecal DNA was performed to examine differences in colonization of Salmonella, E. coli, and Enterococcus species among the genetic lines. Results indicated line E having the highest Enterococcus but lowest Salmonella …

Characterizing the Microbiome of Scottish Freshwater Pearl Mussels (Margaritifera margaritifera): A Metabarcoding Analysis using Next-Generation Sequencing
… lifestyle exposing them to diverse microbial communities, these mussels serve as an excellent model for investigating host-microbiome interactions. This study provides the first taxonomic characterization of the microbiome in Scottish M. margaritifera populations. Microbial …

Determining the impact of carrion decomposition on soil microbial activity levels and community composition.
… useful for forensic investigators. Advances in microbial profiling techniques have made it possible to compare microbial community profiles obtained from evidence or crime scenes to individuals and vice versa. Profiling microbial communities associated with cadaver decomposition may provide …

Performance and Microbial Profiles of Broiler Chickens fed Phytogenic Feed Additives or Probiotics during Coccidiosis
… were performed to evaluate the performance and microbial profiles of commercial broilers fed either PFAs or Eimeria challenged broilers fed probiotics. During the probiotics study, 1056 day-old male Ross broiler chicks were assigned to one of 6 treatments, 8 replicates per treatment, with 22 …

Mechanistic insight into the role of dietary fibers and short chain fatty acids in the regulation of metabolism and inflammation in the pig
… and host metabolism via modulation of gut microbial community structure and production of short chain fatty acids (SCFA). A series of in vivo experiments were conducted to determine the effects of dietary fiber on pig growth performance and gut microbial community as well as host …

Managing Poultry Gut Integrity, Immunity and Microbial Balance During Necrotic Enteritis
… improving nutrients absorption and metabolism. Microbial profiling using 16S rRNA sequencing showed that supplementation of each specific additive led to a signature-like microbiome in the ileal scrapings of broilers. However, supplementation of multi-component additives (including a symbiotic …
