Relationship between true digestibility of dietary phosphorus and gastrointestinal bacteria of goats.

ABSTRACT: The present research was conducted to evaluate the connection between the true digestibility of Phosphorus (TDP) in diet and bacterial community structure in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of goats. Twenty-eight Nubian goats were chosen and metabolic experiment was conducted to analyze TDP of research animals. Eight goats were grouped into the high digestibility of phosphorus (HP) phenotype, and another 8 were grouped into the low digestibility of phosphorus (LP) phenotype. And from the rumen, abomasum, jejunim, cecum and colon content of the goats, bacterial 16S rRNA gene amplicons were sequenced. In the rumen 239 genera belonging to 23 phyla, in abomasum 319 genera belonging to 30 phyla, in jejunum 248 genera belonging to 36 phyla, in colon 248 genera belonging to 25 phyla and in cecum
