The effect of different types of exercise on fecal microbiome, fecal metabolome and metabolic fingerprint of skeletal muscle in the equine athlete.

Exercise training effects on gut microbiome and on muscle metabolic status play a pivotal role in performance management in equine athletes. In the current research proposal the differential effect of training types on the equine microbiome and muscle metabolomic profile is studied using 16S rRNA high throughput sequencing of the microbiome and muscle and fecal metabolomic fingerprinting as broad exploration techniques
