METHOD FOR MONITORING THE GUT MICROBIOME STATUS IN BROILER PRODUCTION

The invention pertains to a method for controlling a process of broiler production, the method comprising monitoring the level of the cpa gene in pooled fecal sample material deriving from the broiler flock to be tested at consecutive points in time, wherein a reduction of the cpa level in the poole...

Zusammenfassung:The invention pertains to a method for controlling a process of broiler production, the method comprising monitoring the level of the cpa gene in pooled fecal sample material deriving from the broiler flock to be tested at consecutive points in time, wherein a reduction of the cpa level in the pooled fecal sample material over time is an indication of optimal broiler development within the production process with regard to their gut microbiome status.
