Broiler chickens and early life programming: Microbiome transplant-induced cecal community dynamics and phenotypic effects.
The concept of successional trajectories describes how small differences in initial community composition can magnify through time and lead to significant differences in mature communities. For many animals, the types and sources of early-life exposures to microbes have been shown to have significan...
