RESULTS: From 8 pooled faecal samples derived from the feeding trial, DNA and RNA virus particles were prepared and subjected to process-controlled Next Generation Sequencing resulting in 390,650 sequence reads. However, it is not known so far, whether probiotic bacteria can also influence the general composition of the faecal virome, e.g. by changing the composition of the bacterial community, which represents the host population for bacteriophages, or by direct interactions with specific viruses. Faecal samples from sows and their piglets experimentally fed with or without the probiotic bacterium were analyzed using a process-controlled deep sequencing method. As the detection rate of the bacteriophages is -besides technical factors -also dependent on the amount of viruses initially present in the analyzed sample, improved deep sequencing methods enabling quantitative analyses should be developed in future for comparative virome investigations. ./cache/cord-001207-yjaiybwf.txt ./txt/cord-001207-yjaiybwf.txt
