Project description:White leghorn layers were infected with Salmonella Enteritidis. The cecum were collected at 7 days post infection for total RNA isolation. The significantly expressed microRNAs between infected and non-infected chickens were identified through Solexa sequencing technology.
Project description:Here we tracked the development of the caecal microbiota in conventional White leghorn chickens of the PA2 line kept in isolators for 7 14 or 21 days using 16S sequencing.
Project description:White Leghorn SPF chickens were immunized with two doses of DNA vaccine, based on the hemagglutinin (HA) DNA from H5N1 virus, in comparison to the control group, which was administered an empty vector (pCI). Gene expression changes in the spleens of chickens were investigated at 7 day post booster dose.
