Shedding Light on the Microbial Community of the Macropod Foregut Using 454-Amplicon Pyrosequencing
Twenty macropods from five locations in Queensland, Australia, grazing on a variety of native pastures were surveyed and the bacterial community of the foregut was examined using 454-amplicon pyrosequencing. Specifically, the V3/V4 region of 16S rRNA gene was examined. A total of 5040 OTUs were iden...
