Sheep rumen fluid raw sequence reads

A total of 60 mutton sheep aged 3-4 months were equally divided into control group and experimental group with three replicates in each group and ten sheep in each replicate pen. The sheep in the two groups were fed control diets and test diets at 4:00 a.m. and 14:00 daily, respectively, with free drinking water and same feeding and management methods. All the animals were vaccinated, therefore, the sheep were raised for 119 d, which included a preparation period of 14 d and a formal experimental period of 105 d. The basic diet of the mutton sheep of both groups was the same: inorganic trace minerals and oligosaccharides chelated OTMs with equal mineral content were added at 0.1% to the diets of both groups.

本试验共选取60只3~4月龄的肉羊，将其均分为对照组与试验组，每组设置3个重复栏，每个重复栏饲养10只肉羊。两组肉羊分别于每日凌晨4时与14时饲喂基础日粮与试验日粮，自由饮水，饲养管理方式完全一致。所有受试肉羊均完成疫苗接种，试验总饲养周期为119天，其中包含14天的预试期与105天的正式试验期。两组肉羊的基础日粮完全一致：两组日粮中均添加0.1%的等矿物含量的无机微量矿物质与寡糖螯合微量矿物质（OTMs）。
