摘要： Simple Summary The circadian rhythm of gut microbiota is an important biological rhythm that plays a crucial role in host health. This study showed that the defecation time may be an important factor in the diversity, proportion, and functions of the feces microbial community. However, there was no circadian rhythm of microbial community assembly confirmed by JTK_Cycle analysis, which is a tool for identifying and characterizing oscillations and can efficiently identify and characterize cycling variables in large data sets. These results might suggest there was no obvious circadian rhythm of fecal microbiota in laying hens under common light. The circadian rhythm of gut microbiota is an important biological rhythm that plays a crucial role in host health. However, few studies have determined the associations between the circadian rhythm and gut microbiota in laying hens. The present experiment investigated the circadian rhythm of fecal microbiota in laying hens. Feces samples were collected from 10 laying hens at nine different time points (06:00-12:00-18:00-00:00-06:00-12:00-18:00-00:00-06:00) to demonstrate the circadian rhythm of fecal microbiota. The results showed that the alpha and beta diversity of the fecal microbiota fluctuated significantly at different time points. Beta nearest taxon index analysis suggested that assembly strategies of the abundant and rare amplicon sequence variant (ASV) sub-communities were different. Abundant ASVs preferred dispersal limitation (weak selection), and rare ASVs were randomly formed due to the "non-dominant" fractions. Highly robust fluctuations of fecal microbiota at the phylum level were found. For example, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria fluctuated inversely to each other, but the total ratio remained in a dynamic balance over 48 h. We identified that temporal dynamic changes had a significant effect on the relative abundance of the important bacteria in the feces microbial community using the random forest algorithm. Eight bacteria, Ruminococcus gnavus, Faecalibacterium, Ruminococcaceae, Enterococcus cecorum, Lachnospiraceae, Clostridium, Clostridiales, and Megamonas, showed significant changes over time. One unexpected finding was the fact that these eight bacteria belong to Firmicutes. The pathways showed significant fluctuation, including xenobiotic biodegradation and metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and amino acid metabolism, which were consistent with the metabolic functions of amino acids and carbohydrates from the feed. This study showed that the defecation time may be an important factor in the diversity, proportion, and functions of the feces microbial community. However, there was no circadian rhythm of microbial community assembly confirmed by JTK_Cycle analysis. These results might suggest there was no obvious circadian rhythm of fecal microbiota in laying hens under common light.
