Genotypic characterization of bacteria cultured from duck faeces

Aims: To characterize the bacterial composition of mallard duck faeces and determine if novel bacterial species are present that could be utilized as potential indicators of avian faecal contamination. Methods and Results: Combined samples of fresh faeces from four ducks were serially diluted and pl...
