摘　　要：Background Bovine milk is an important source of nutrition for human consumption,and its quality is closely associated with the microbiota and metabolites in it.But there is limited knowledge about the milk microbiome and metabolome in cows with subacute ruminal acidosis.Methods Eight ruminally cannulated Holstein cows in mid lactation were selected for a 3-week experiment.The cows were randomly allocated into 2 groups,fed either a conventional diet(CON;40%concentrate;dry matter basis)or a high-concentrate diet(HC;60%concentrate;dry matter basis).Results The results showed that there was a decreased milk fat percentage in the HC group compared to the CON group.The amplicon sequencing results indicated that the alpha diversity indices were not affected by the HC feeding.At the phylum level,the milk bacteria were dominated by Proteobacteria,Actinobacteria,Bacteroidetes,and Firmicutes both in the CON and HC groups.At the genus level,the HC cows displayed an improved proportion of Labrys(P=0.015)compared with the CON cows.Results of both the principal components analysis and partial least squares of discriminant analysis of milk metabolome revealed that samples of the CON and HC groups clustered separately.A total of 31 differential metabolites were identified between the two groups.Of these,the levels of 11 metabolites decreased(α-linolenic acid,prostaglandin E2,L-lactic acid,L-malic acid,3-hydroxysebacic acid,succinyladenosine,guanosine,pyridoxal,L-glutamic acid,hippuric acid,and trigonelline),whereas the levels of the other 20 metabolites increased in the HC group with respect to the CON group(P<0.05).Conclusion These results suggested that subacute ruminal acidosis less impacted the diversity and composition of milk microbiota,but altered the milk metabolic profiles,which led to the decline of the milk quality.
