Influence of the microbiota-gut-brain axis on behaviour and welfare in farm animals
Original language description
There is increasing evidence of a pivotal role of the gut microbiota (GUT-M) in key physiological functions in vertebrates. Many studies discuss functional implications of GUT-M not only on immunity, growth, metabolism, but also on brain development and behaviour. However, while the influence of the microbiota gut brain axis (MGBA) on behaviour is documented in rodents and humans, data on farm animals are missing. This review will summarize the influence of the MGBA on behaviour in rodents and humans and the changes described in emotion, memory, social and feeding behaviours described in farm animals. Some relationships between GUT-M and behaviour are still weak and demonstration are still lacking. However, this corpus of experiments suggests that a better understanding of the consequences of MGBA on behaviour could have large implications in the various fields of animal production. Animal welfare and health could especially be improved by selection, nutrition and management processes that would take into account the role of GUT-M in behaviour.
