Cover Story: This research explored microbiome-based approaches to counter multidrug-resistant Salmonella Heidelberg (MDR SH) colonization in turkeys through the use of antibiotic alternatives. Twelve-week-old commercial turkeys, challenged with MDR SH, were allocated to five treatment groups: negative control, Salmonella control, Lactobacillus supplementation, Propionibacterium freudenreichii supplementation, or a live attenuated Salmonella Typhimurium vaccine. Shotgun metagenomic analysis showed that all interventions enriched lactic acid-producing bacteria in the cecum and enhanced metabolic pathways and microbial networks associated with gut health. These results emphasize the potential of microbiome-based interventions for promoting gut resilience in poultry colonized with MDR pathogens and lessening the need for antibiotics in production. View this paper
