Investigation of the Interrelationship between Ruminal and Oral Microbiomes -Dr. Lourenco Lab, University of Georgia.

This dataset contains 16S rRNA gene sequencing FASTQ files for studying the ruminal and oral microbiomes in Angus bulls. It includes microbial DNA sequences from ruminal and buccal samples of registered Angus bulls collected across five farms in three different states in the United States. The data provides a basis for analyzing microbiome composition, richness, and diversity within these distinct but related microbial ecosystems. These FASTQ files are integral for understanding the complex interrelationship between the rumen and oral microbiomes of Angus bulls, and they aim to explore non-invasive sampling techniques for ruminal microbiome studies.
