Infection with Eimeria ovinoidalis alters gut microbial composition and metabolic profiles in Tan sheep, leading to significant health issues.
Findings showed reduced alpha diversity and distinct microbial communities, with 38 species differing between infected and healthy groups.
Integrated metagenomic and metabolomic analyses highlighted pathways related to inflammation and amino acid metabolism, crucial for health management.
Results suggest a link between gut bacteria and pro-inflammatory metabolites in infected sheep, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions.
