The commensal microbiota influences the health, feeding efficiency, and reproductive performance of sows. The microbiota composition in the alimentary and genitourinary tracts and in colostrum/milk during pregnancy and lactation also impacts the developing microbiota and immune system of the piglets and subsequently their growth and health. Knowledge of the microbial compositions is important for evaluation of these effects and for discovering ways to improve the health and productivity of the sows. Oral, vaginal, and rectal mucosa were sampled from 32 sows of variable parity in late pregnancy on four commercial piglet-producing farms in Finland. Colostrum samples were taken within 6 hours of delivery of the first piglet. Microbial compositions were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. Moderate differences in diversity and composition were observed between farms. The most abundant genera of the oral microbiota were Rothia, Moraxella, and Streptococcus. The rectal microbiota was dominated by Clostridium sensu stricto 1. Streptococcus was the most abundant genus in the vagina and colostrum. Differences in relative abundances of genera were detected between primiparous and multiparous sows. Some of these differences were detected across all the farms; in the multiparous sows, the relative abundances of Fusobacterium and Neisseria were lower in oral samples. Clostridium sensu stricto 1, Romboutsia, and Lachnospiraceae_UCG_007 were higher and Prevotella lower in rectal samples, and Streptococcus higher in colostrum samples. In vaginal samples, approximately half of the multiparous sows had significantly higher relative abundances of the genera Fusobacterium and Streptococcus than the primiparous sows. Among the differentially abundant taxa, F. necrophorum and F. nucleatum were identified in oral samples, Fusobacterium gastrosuis and Fusobacterium necrophorum in vaginal samples, and Streptococcus dysgalactiae in colostrum samples. Most of the differences were due to unidentified species within the respective genus. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the mucosal and colostrum microbiota of periparturient sows during normal production conditions on Finnish commercial farms, including potentially interesting differences in the relative abundances of several genera at different mucosal sites between sows of low and high parity.

Periodontitis is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and destroys the bone supporting the teeth. The aim of the study was to investigate the microbiota using traditional microbiology plating and metagenomic sequencing of extracted tooth alveoli in dogs with severe periodontitis. Isolation of culturable microorganisms was performed as part of bacteriological testing to provide bacteriological diagnosis to veterinary surgeons. Metagenomic sequencing was performed using shotgun sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq system platform. The most prevalent species at sites of periodontal infection detected by metagenomic sequencing were Porphyromonas gulae, Prevotella spp., Tannerella forsythia, Porphyromonas crevioricanis, Porphyromonas cangingivalis, and Bacteroides heparinolyticus. Pasteurella, Streptococcus, and Neisseria were the most frequently isolated culturable bacteria from infected sites detected by traditional microbiologic methods. Metagenomic data revealed that these three genera accounted for only 1.6% of all microbiota at the sites of infection. Antimicrobial resistance patterns of the isolated bacteria included resistance to ampicillin, doxycycline, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, ciprofloxacin, colistin, cefotaxime, and chloramphenicol. Antimicrobial-resistant genes detected using shotgun sequencing also showed resistance to aminoglycosides and macrolides. Dogs with periodontal infections carry bacteria that can cause bite infections in humans as well as multi-resistant isolates. Therefore, treatment and prophylaxis or periodontal disease of dogs is important from a One Health perspective.
