Abstract

Dolphins are marine mammals with unique anatomical structures in their airways. These particular respiratory structures make dolphins very sensitive to microorganisms in the air, and the habitats of dolphins in captivity and in the wild are quite different. This causes captive dolphins to suffer from illnesses, especially respiratory diseases. Previous studies have shown that the respiratory flora plays an essential role in the health of humans and animals. Therefore, by comparative analysis of the respiratory flora of wild dolphins and dolphins in captivity, we want to find the flora related to dolphins’ respiratory diseases, and try to improve dolphin health through flora homeostasis. For this purpose, we performed 16S rRNA gene sequencing and analyses. We found that Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Campilobacterota, Paracoccus, and other flora differed between wild and healthy and sub-healthy captive dolphins. Some of them are the dominant flora for promoting health, and the others may be essential pathogenic bacteria in the sub-healthy state of dolphins in captivity.

野生和圈养海豚呼吸孔菌群的差异分析

海豚是一种海洋哺乳动物，它们的呼吸道具有独特的解剖结构。这些特殊的呼吸结构使海豚对空气中的微生物非常敏感，圈养海豚和野生海豚的栖息地也大不相同。这导致圈养海豚患上疾病，尤其是呼吸道疾病。先前的研究表明，呼吸道菌群对人类和动物的健康起着至关重要的作用。因此，通过对野生海豚和圈养海豚呼吸道菌群的对比分析，我们希望找到与海豚呼吸道疾病相关的菌群，并试图通过菌群稳态来改善海豚的健康。为此，我们进行了16S rRNA基因测序和分析。我们发现变形菌门、厚壁菌门、放线菌门、Campilobacterota、副球菌和其他菌群在野生、健康和亚健康圈养海豚之间存在差异。其中一些是促进健康的优势菌群，另一些可能是圈养海豚亚健康状态的必需致病菌。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
