The aim of the study was to isolate intestinal species and compare their physiological and traits for adaptation to the avian intestinal niche. Fourteen strains isolated from chickens of intensive rearing farms and free-range hens, were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing, rep-PCR fingerprinting, and carbohydrates fermentation. Strains belonged to species <jats:italic>Bifidobacterium pseudolongum<\/jats:italic> subsp. <jats:italic>pseudolongum<\/jats:italic> and subsp. <jats:italic>globosum<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>B. pullorum<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>B. animalis<\/jats:italic> subsp <jats:italic>lactis<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>B. boum<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>B. thermacidophilum<\/jats:italic> subsp. <jats:italic>thermacidophilum<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>B. thermophilum<\/jats:italic>. One strain of <jats:italic>B. animalis<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>B.\u00a0pullorum<\/jats:italic>, and two of <jats:italic>B. pseudolongum<\/jats:italic> subsp. <jats:italic>pseudolongum<\/jats:italic> were obtained from chicks, while the others were from free-range adult hens. Growth (in MRSc) at the poultry physiological temperature, acids production in caecal water with raffinose (rCW), <jats:italic>ex vivo<\/jats:italic> adhesion (%) to avian intestinal epithelial cells (IEC), and auto-aggregation (%) were used for discrimination inter- and intra-specific. Significantly different acetic and lactic acids production and growth temperatures were observed in strains of the same species\/subspecies. Remarkable auto-aggregation capability was observed in <jats:italic>B. thermacidophilum<\/jats:italic> subsp. <jats:italic>thermacidophilum<\/jats:italic> LET 406 (40.2\u00a0\u00b1 1.1%), while adhesion property was highlighted in <jats:italic>B. pseudolongum<\/jats:italic> subsp. <jats:italic>pseudolongum<\/jats:italic> LET 408 (65.30\u00a0\u00b1 4.75% in jejunum; 46.05\u00a0\u00b1 2.80 in ileum). Scanning Electronic Microscopy of the interaction IEC-LET 408 revealed an irregular bacterial surface exhibiting vesicle-like arrangements and filaments that formed a network among bacteria cells and with the epithelial cells, as possible adaptative response to promote its persistence in the gut. These finds will be valuable for bacterial supplements design intended to intensive rearing.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1163\/18762891-20230022","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,29]],"date-time":"2024-02-29T08:58:16Z","timestamp":1709197096000},"page":"19-38","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The species and physiological diversity of Bifidobacterium genus in Gallus gallus domesticus are influenced by feeding model and niche adaptations"],"prefix":"10.1163","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8188-8408","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"S.M.M.","family":"Grande","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Microbiolog\u0131\u0301a, Facultad de Bioqu\u0131\u0301mica, Qu\u0131\u0301mica y Farmacia, Universidad Nacional de Tucuma\u0301n, Ayacucho 471, T4000INI San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"},{"name":"Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cient\u0131\u0301ficas y Te\u0301cnicas (CONICET), Criso\u0301stomo A\u0301lvarez 722, T4000CHN San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3546-9696","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"E.","family":"Argan\u0303araz\u00a0Mart\u0131\u0301nez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Microbiolog\u0131\u0301a, Facultad de Bioqu\u0131\u0301mica, Qu\u0131\u0301mica y Farmacia, Universidad Nacional de Tucuma\u0301n, Ayacucho 471, T4000INI San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"},{"name":"Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cient\u0131\u0301ficas y Te\u0301cnicas (CONICET), Criso\u0301stomo A\u0301lvarez 722, T4000CHN San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9821-977X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"J.D.","family":"Babot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Referencia para Lactobacilos (CERELA-CONICET), Chacabuco 145, T4000ILC, San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4084-6946","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"E.","family":"Andrada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Referencia para Lactobacilos (CERELA-CONICET), Chacabuco 145, T4000ILC, San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Quiroga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Microbiolog\u0131\u0301a, Facultad de Bioqu\u0131\u0301mica, Qu\u0131\u0301mica y Farmacia, Universidad Nacional de Tucuma\u0301n, Ayacucho 471, T4000INI San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"},{"name":"Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cient\u0131\u0301ficas y Te\u0301cnicas (CONICET), Criso\u0301stomo A\u0301lvarez 722, T4000CHN San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4496-4584","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"M.","family":"Garro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Referencia para Lactobacilos (CERELA-CONICET), Chacabuco 145, T4000ILC, San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5737-4466","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"F.","family":"Saguir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Microbiolog\u0131\u0301a, Facultad de Bioqu\u0131\u0301mica, Qu\u0131\u0301mica y Farmacia, Universidad Nacional de Tucuma\u0301n, Ayacucho 471, T4000INI San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"},{"name":"Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cient\u0131\u0301ficas y Te\u0301cnicas (CONICET), Criso\u0301stomo A\u0301lvarez 722, T4000CHN San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0281-0923","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"A.","family":"Perez\u00a0Chaia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Microbiolog\u0131\u0301a, Facultad de Bioqu\u0131\u0301mica, Qu\u0131\u0301mica y Farmacia, Universidad Nacional de Tucuma\u0301n, Ayacucho 471, T4000INI San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"},{"name":"Centro de Referencia para Lactobacilos (CERELA-CONICET), Chacabuco 145, T4000ILC, San Miguel de Tucuma\u0301n, Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"374","reference":[{"key":"R000001","series-title":"Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal","first-page":"1472","article-title":"The genus Bifidobacterium: from genomics to functionality of an important component of the mammalian gut microbiota","volume":"19","author":"Alessandri, G.","unstructured":"Alessandri, G., van Sinderen, D. and Ventura, M., 2021.
