Distinct bacterial metacommunities inhabit the upper and lower respiratory tracts of healthy feedlot cattle and those diagnosed with bronchopneumonia
Abstract
Specific nasopharyngeal bacterial communities can provide colonization resistance against respiratory pathogens in cattle. However, the role of bacterial communities of the lower airways in respiratory health remains largely unknown. Therefore, our objective was to compare nasopharyngeal and tracheal bacterial communities between healthy feedlot cattle and those with bronchopneumonia (BP). Deep nasal swabs and trans-tracheal aspiration samples...
