Metagenomic Sequencing Reveals that High-Grain Feeding Alters the Composition and Metabolism of Cecal Microbiota and Induces Cecal Mucosal Injury in Sheep

The cecum serves as an additional fermentation site for ruminants, but it lacks buffering capacity and has a relatively simple epithelial structure compared to the rumen. The role of high-grain (HG) diets in manipulating the rumen microbiome has been well elucidated, yet the microbial response to su...
