The vaginal bacteria are critical for neonatal immunity, as well as for further infections and pathologies in foals and mares during the postpartum period. The vaginal microbiota was examined in six mares. Swabs were taken from the vaginal caudal wall within 12 h after natural delivery. Next-generation sequencing was used to analyze the composition of the vaginal microbiota and identify shared bacterial taxa. The post-delivery vaginal microbiome of mares included 18 identified families, 25 genera, and 33 species. The core families of the mares' microbiome comprised (21.72%), / (15.54%), (13.32%), (10.84%), and (4.26%). Shared bacterial species included , spp., spp., and uncultured bacteria. We found the presence of various and species that could be involved in uterine disorders. Further research should focus on the possible pathogenicity of these bacteria for mares in the postpartum period and newborn foals.
阴道细菌对新生驹的免疫力至关重要,对产后母马和幼驹的进一步感染及病理状况也很关键。对6匹母马的阴道微生物群进行了检查。在自然分娩后12小时内从阴道后壁采集拭子。使用新一代测序技术分析阴道微生物群的组成并鉴定共享细菌分类群。产后母马的阴道微生物组包括18个已鉴定的科、25个属和33个种。母马微生物组的核心科包括(21.72%)、/(15.54%)、(13.32%)、(10.84%)和(4.26%)。共享细菌种类包括、 spp.、 spp.和未培养细菌。我们发现存在各种可能与子宫疾病有关的和种类。进一步的研究应关注这些细菌在产后母马和新生驹中可能的致病性。
