The Venn diagram shows OTU numbers common between or unique to the respective host. The box plots display the relative abundance of the respective top-10 prevalent, host-specific OTUs (their prevalence is in brackets; coloured according to phyla as in Fig. 1). The box plots indicate the ...
B Sankey flow diagram of O-glycan structures in two groups. The width of the flow corresponds to the relative abundance of structures. Red arrowhead indicates structures altered in piglets. P<0.05. C Heatmap illustrating the altered relative abundance of mucin O-glycans. P<0.1. Data are ...

Ileal bacterial community structure. Ileal bacterial community of three groups shared about 42% OTUs shown in Venn diagram (Fig. 2a). Each group possessed similar amount of unique OTUs. Firmicutes, Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria are dominant phyla in ileum of the finishing pigs, account- ...
Microbial OTU Venn diagram in fecal samples of growing pigs as affected by different ratio of fermented corn germ meal (FCGM) replacing soybean meal in diet. FCGM0, FCGM10, FCGM20 and FCGM30 diets were made by substituting FCGM for 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% soybean meal ( n= 6). OU...

This difference may be due to the metabolic intensity and digestive system maturity of pigs at different ages. In addition, the feed ratio is also of concern since sows and piglets have a higher proportion of protein and crude fiber, while finishing pigs have a higher fat content that is ...
On commercial pig farms, weaning occurs prematurely at approximately four weeks of age, when the pig’s digestive and immune systems have not yet matured. The post-weaning period is often associated with poor performance, diarrhoea and even mortality. One area which has been somewhat overlooked, ...
) The Venn diagram of the DEGs shows that only a few genes were shared between groups. Figure 3. Scatter plot presenting the distribution of samples in the two-dimensional coordinate system determined by the first (PC1) and the second (PC2) principal components, which were calculated using ...
