Metagenome plasticity of the bovine abomasal microbiota in immune animals in response to Ostertagia ostertagi infection.
Infections in cattle by the abomasal nematode Ostertagia ostertagi result in impaired gastrointestinal function. Six partially immune animals were developed using multiple drug-attenuated infections, and these animals displayed reduced worm burdens and a slightly elevated abomasal pH upon reinfectio...
