A Review of the Diversity of the Genital Tract Microbiome and Implications for Fertility of Cattle

Animals, 2022
Cattle have a genital microbiome that is established early in life, even before calving. Microbial influx into the reproductive system of cows, during calving or mating, is unavoidable and is likely to alter the commensal microflora composition.
