Abstract

The work shows the effect of adding Lactiplantibacillus plantarum AG10 biomass to quail feed. Quails that received a probiotic feed additive for seven weeks showed a significant improvement in such economic indicators as the dynamics of live weight, gutted carcass weight and feed consumption per 1 kg of gain. Using the analysis of libraries of 16S rRNA gene sequences sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq platform, shifts in the microbiota of the cecum were discovered, which can help improve the morphological and physiological parameters of quails.
