The fecal microbiota of piglets is influenced by the farming environment and is associated with piglet robustness at weaning

2019-11-29

Abstract excerpt

This study describes the response of piglet microbiota to weaning in various environments, and investigates whether microbiota composition is associated with the robustness of piglets. Faecal samples and growth data were collected just before and 7 days after weaning in 288 piglets from 16 commercial farms characterised by their pathogenic status and antimicrobial use. The effect of weaning on the most abundant mi...
