Time series of chicken stool metagenomics and egg metabolomics in changing production systems: preliminary insights from a proof-of-concept

Abstract Background Different production systems of livestock animals influence various factors, including the gut microbiota. Methods We investigated whether changing the conditions from barns to free-range chicken farming impacts the microbiome over the course of three weeks. We compared the stool...
