Longitudinal analysis of faecal microbiome in pigs fed Cyberlindnera jadinii yeast as a protein source in a weanling diet followed by a rapeseed-based grower-finisher diet

To study how the porcine gut microbiota respond to a combination of diets wherein the conventional proteins are replaced by the?yeast-derived proteins during weaning followed by RSM-based diets during G/F period, we designed a longitudinal study of the porcine faecal microbiomes by using 16S rRNA gene metagenome sequencing. We characterized the faecal microbiome structure of pigs fed yeast-based weanling diet followed by the RSM-based diet during G/F period (YL group) contrasting it with those fed SBM-based weanling diet followed by the RSM-based diet during G/F period (CL group).?
