The effects of pre-weaning (gestation and lactation) or post-weaning (Diet A or Diet B) diets on the different bacterial genera (proportion of total sequences) present in at least 5 faecal samples from the domestic kitten (<i>Felis catus</i>; n = 5 per treatment) at a level of 0.5% or higher.

Diet A- Diet B (A-B) n = 3 females, n = 2 males. Diet B- Diet A (B-A) n = 3 females, n = 2 males. Diet B- Diet B (B-B) n = 4 females, n = 1 male. 1Comparisons between Diets A-A and A-B vs B-A and B-B. 2Comparison between Diets A-A and B-A and B-B and A-B. Results represent an average of samples taken at week 8 and 17. P value indicates ANOVA significance of rank transformed data and False discovery Rate (FDR) indicates multiple testing adjusted P value. Diet A-Diet A (A-A) n = 3 females, n = 2 males.
