Advancements in 16S rRNA gene amplicon community sequencing have vastly expanded our understanding of the reproductive microbiome and its role in fertility. In humans, is the overwhelmingly dominant bacteria within reproductive tissues and is known to be commensal and an indicator of fertility in women and men. It is also known that is not as largely abundant in the reproductive tissues of domestic livestock species. Thus, the objective of this review is to summarize the research to date on both female and male reproductive microbiomes in domestic livestock species (i.e., dairy cattle, beef cattle, swine, small ruminants, and horses). Having a comprehensive understanding of reproductive microbiota and its role in modulating physiological functions will aid in the development of management and therapeutic strategies to improve reproductive efficiency.
16S rRNA基因扩增子群落测序技术的进步极大地扩展了我们对生殖微生物组及其在生育能力中作用的理解。在人类中, 是生殖组织中占绝对优势的细菌,已知其为共生菌,也是女性和男性生育能力的一个指标。还已知在家畜物种的生殖组织中, 没有那么丰富。因此,本综述的目的是总结迄今为止关于家畜物种(即奶牛、肉牛、猪、小型反刍动物和马)雌性和雄性生殖微生物组的研究。全面了解生殖微生物群及其在调节生理功能中的作用将有助于制定提高生殖效率的管理和治疗策略。
