Microbiome in Animal Nutrition, Health and Diseases

Microbiome in Animal Nutrition, Health and Diseases Synopsis

This book provides an overview on how the gut microbiome contributes to animal nutrition, health, and diseases. This book shows basic technologies about the structure and function of gut microbiomes. Written by leading experts in the field, the book outlines metagenomic mining and the development of bioinformatic tools in the connection between intestinal microbiota and immune defense systems. This book will allow graduate, post graduate and postdoctoral students, veterinary doctors, and biomedical researchers the opportunity to get profound knowledge on the application of microbiomics in different disease manifestations. It specifically addresses molecular and cellular mechanisms interplaying gut health in animal health, and diseases. This book demonstrates the influence of animal behaviour, from social recognition to emotional states in recognition to microbiomes.
