Article Synopsis
- Most microbiome research has mainly focused on the rumen in ruminants, leaving the gut microbiota less understood; this study investigates the gut microbiota of 30 sheep and goats in China.
- Using advanced sequencing techniques, the researchers identified 5,046 new microbial genomes, with over half being potentially new species that are not recorded in existing databases.
- The findings enhance our knowledge of Caprinae gut microbiota diversity and could influence future research on animal health and production.*
