Relationship between rumen microbiota and pregnancy toxemia in ewes
In conclusion, the decrease of <i>Oribacterium</i>, <i>Butyrivibrio, Ruminococcus</i>, and <i>Lachnospiraceae_AC2044_group</i> in the rumen of PT ewes reduced the concentrations of volatile fatty acids (acetate, propionate, and butyrate) and serum Glu, and increased BHBA concentration, indicating that the differences in rumen bacteria genera were related to pregnancy toxemia of ewes.
