Resumo
The animal gut is host to an abundant and diverse microbiota, has an enormous
metabolic potential and it affects both the nutrition and health of the host, most of
these organisms are considered commensal or symbiotic, but can also be
detrimental. Microbiota in the intestine of an animal species has evolved together
with the host. To better understand the chicken intestinal microbiota studies have
characterized the different bacteria found in the gastrointestinal tract and the
importance of intestinal microbiota for the performance of broiler chickens. Much of
the information that has accumulated on the composition of the gastrointestinal
microbiota of poultry and other animals has come from culture-based studies, more
recently, various PCR-based methods have been developed to characterize and
quantify the gastrointestinal microbiota. The objective of the current study was
characterizing the main microorganisms present in the gut microbiota and its
influence on performance and health of poultry production.
