The study’s objective was to identify typical aerobic isolates from commercial, corn-soybean meal poultry diets utilizing 16S rDNA, assign them their corresponding taxonomy, and compare the data with the previously published WGS analysis of these same isolates. Ten grams of a commercial corn-soybean meal poultry diet was homogenized in 100 mL of tryptic soy broth for 2 min, serially diluted, plated onto tryptic soy agar (TSA), and incubated aerobically for 24 h at 37 °C. Subsequently, 20 unique colonies were streaked for isolation on TSA and incubated aerobically for 24 h at 37 °C. This process was repeated three consecutive times for purification of isolates until only 11 morphologically distinct colonies were obtained. DNA was extracted using Qiagen’s DNeasey® Blood and Tissue Kit. The 16S rRNA V4 region was targeted using an Illumina MiSeq and analyzed via QIIME2-2020.2. Alpha diversity and Beta diversity metrics were generated, and taxa were aligned using Silva in Qiime2-2020.2. Twenty-five distinct genera were identified within the 11 different colonies. Because 16S rDNA identification can provide an understanding of pathogen associations and microbial niches within an ecosystem, the information may present a potential method to establish and characterize the hygienic indicator microorganisms associated with poultry feed.
