| Summary: | 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 246 genera belonging to 23 phyla were noticed. In addition, there was a significant correlation between the TDP and the abundance of Ruminococcaceae_UCG-010, Ruminococcus_2, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-014, Selenomonas_1 and Prevotella in the rumen, Lachnospiraceae_ND3007_group, Saccharofermentans, Ruminococcus_1, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-014, Lachnospiraceae_XPB1014_group and Desulfovibrio in the abomasum, Prevotella, Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1, Fibrobacter, Desulfovibrio and Ruminococcus_2 in the jejunum, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-014 in the colon, and Desulfovibrio in the cecum. Present research trial recommended that the community of gastrointestinal microbiota is a factor affecting TDP in goats.
