This study was conducted to examine the effects of clay (CL) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (SCFP) on the ruminal bacterial community of Holstein dairy cows challenged with aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). A second objective was to examine correlations between bacterial abundance and performance measures. Eight lactating dairy cows stratified by milk yield and parity were randomly assigned to 4 treatments in a 4 × 4 Latin square design with 2 replicate squares, four 33-d periods, and a 5-d washout between periods. The treatments included (1) control (basal diet, no additive); (2) T (control + 63.4 µg/kg AFB1, oral dose); (3) CL (T + 200 g/head per day of sodium bentonite clay, top-dress); and (4) CL+SCFP [CL + 19 g/head per day Diamond V NutriTek (Diamond V Inc., Cedar Rapids, IA) + 16 g/head per day MetaShield (Diamond V Inc.), top-dress]. Cows were adapted to diets containing no AFB1 from d 1 to 25 (predosing period). From d 26 to 30 (dosing period), AFB1 was orally dosed and then withdrawn for d 31 to 33 (withdrawal period). During the predosing period, compared with the control, feeding CL and CL+SCFP increased the relative abundance of the most dominant phylum, Bacteroidetes (55.1 and 55.8 vs. 50.6%, respectively), and feeding CL+SCFP increased Prevotella abundance (43.3 and 43.6 vs. 40.0%, respectively). During the dosing period, feeding AFB1 did not affect the ruminal bacterial community, but the relative abundance of Fibrobacteraceae increased with CL+SCFP compared with T (1.45 vs. 0.97%); Fibrobacter abundance also tended to increase with CL+SCFP compared with T and control, respectively (1.45 vs. 0.97 and 1.05%, respectively). Feeding AFB1 with or without CL or CL+SCFP did not affect ruminal pH or concentrations of NH3-N, total volatile fatty acids, or individual volatile fatty acids. Milk yield and milk component yields were positively correlated with the relative abundance of unclassified Succinivibrionaceae, unclassified YS2, or Coprococcus. Feed efficiency was positively correlated (r ≥ 0.30) with the relative abundance of unclassified YS2, Coprococcus, or Treponema. Feeding aflatoxin at 63 µg/kg, a common contamination level on farms, did not affect the abundance of dominant bacteria or rumen fermentation. When aflatoxin was fed, CL+SCFP increased the abundance of Fibrobacter, a major fibrolytic bacteria genus. Milk yield and DMI were positively correlated with abundance of Succinivibrionaceae and Coprococcus. Feed efficiency was positively correlated with abundance of Coprococcus, Treponema, and YS2. Future studies should speciate culture and determine the functions of the bacteria to elucidate their roles in the rumen and potential contribution to increasing the performance of dairy cows.
