Comparison of Bacterial Populations in the Ceca of Swine at Two Different Stages and Their Functional Annotations

Comparison of Bacterial Populations in the Ceca of Swine at Two Different Stages and Their Functional Annotations

The microbial composition in the cecum of pig influences host health, immunity, nutrient digestion, and feeding requirements significantly. Advancements in metagenome sequencing technologies such as 16S rRNAs have made it possible to explore cecum microbial population. In this study, we performed a...
