Abstract:

In order to explore the characteristics and differences of the microbial flora of the sand bedding and rubber bedding of dairy farms, 6 samples of sand bedding and rubber bedding were collected from two dairy farms in Sichuan Province,and the sequencing and bioinformatics of 16S rRNA gene in V4 area was analyzed by high-throughput sequencing technology. The results showed that a total of 1 443 818 clean reads were obtained from the 12 samples of the bedding material of the two dairy farms. The effective sequences with a similarity of 97% were subjected to operational taxonomic units (OTUs), and a total 2 311 OTUs were produced. At the level of genus classification, the dominant bacteria in the sand bedding were Acinetobacter, Marinobacter, Riemerella, Corynebacterium, Arthrobacter. The dominant bacteria in the rubber bedding were Corynebacterium, Luteimonas, Fusobacterium,Halomonas, and Vibrio. The relative abundance of Acinetobacter and Riemerella in the sand bedding samples was significantly higher than that of the rubber bedding samples (P<0.05), but the relative abundance of Fusobacterium in the rubber bedding samples was significantly higher than that of the sand bedding sample (P<0.05). Chao index, Ace index, Shannon index and Simpson index were not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05). The results indicated that difference of the microbial flora between sand bedding samples was greater than the rubber bedding samples, whether it was sand or rubber bedding, there were pathogenic bacteria in environmental conditions.
