Exploring a Possible Link between the Fecal Microbiota and the Production Performance of Pigs
The backfat thickness of pigs not only affects the physical properties and taste of meat, but it also closely relates to the reproduction performance of sows. Accumulating evidence indicates that, apart from genetic factors, gut microbiota can also modulate the fat deposition and muscle growth. Howe...
