TL;DR: The development of caecal microbiota in egg laying hens over their commercial production lifespan, from the day of hatching until 60 weeks of age, was characterised using pyrosequencing of V3/V4 variable regions of 16S rRNA genes for microbiota characterisation.

TL;DR: Hypothetical genes, with genetic differences, consistently found between TPE and TPA strains are candidates for syphilitic treponemes virulence factors and represent suitable targets for subspecies- and strain-specific molecular diagnostics.

TL;DR: Major gut microbiota members utilise different strategies for gut colonisation and high oxygen sensitivity of Firmicutes may explain their commonly reported decrease after oxidative burst during gut inflammation.

TL;DR: It was found that a mere 24-hour-long contact between a hen and newly hatched chickens was long enough for transfer of hen gut microbiota to chickens.

TL;DR: The prevalence of selected antibiotic resistance genes and microbiota composition in feces of egg laying hens and broilers originating from 4 different Central European countries determined by real-time PCR and 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing, respectively, was determined.
