The point prevalence of gastro-intestinal parasites in calves, sheep and goats in Magadi division, south-western Kenya.
Helminths cause great economic loss in livestock in Africa, and can be categorized as either direct or indirect losses. Arid and semi-arid lands (ASAL) in Kenya comprise 71% of total land area and harbour the largest population of cattle, sheep and goats. However, little information on the distribution and impact of gastro-intestinal (GIT) parasitism in these animals is available. This survey w...
متن کاملEffect of Environmental Factors and an Emerging Parasitic Disease on Gut Microbiome of Wild Salmonid Fish
The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of fish supports a dynamic microbial ecosystem that is intimately linked to host nutrient acquisition, epithelial development, immune system priming, and disease prevention, and we are far from understanding the complex interactions among parasites, symbiotic gut bacteria, and host fitness. Here, we analyzed the effects of environmental factors and parasitic bur...
متن کاملSpatial heterogeneity and stability of bacterial community in the gastrointestinal tracts of broiler chickens.
Bacterial communities in the different regions of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of broiler chickens were analyzed by pyrosequencing approach to understand microbial composition and diversity. The DNA samples extracted from 7 different regions along the GIT were subjected to bacterial-community analysis by pyrosequencing of the V1-V3 region of 16S rRNA gene. Major bacterial phyla in the chicken-g...
متن کاملNext Generation Sequencing and its Application in the Study of Microbiome in Plant Diseases Suppressive Soils
Progress in next-generation sequencing has played a significant role in ecological studies of microbial populations. These advances have led to a rapid evaluation in metagenomics studies (analysis of DNA of microbial communities without the need to culture). Many statistical and computational tools and metagenomics databases have led to the discovery of huge amounts of data. In this research, i...
متن کاملGut Microbiome of the Critically Endangered New Zealand Parrot, the Kakapo (Strigops habroptilus)
The kakapo, a parrot endemic to New Zealand, is currently the focus of intense research and conservation efforts with the aim of boosting its population above the current 'critically endangered' status. While virtually nothing is known about the microbiology of the kakapo, given the acknowledged importance of gut-associated microbes in vertebrate nutrition and pathogen defense, it should be of ...
