Correlated Responses to Selection for Intramuscular Fat on the Gut Microbiome in Rabbits

Correlated Responses to Selection for Intramuscular Fat on the Gut Microbiome in Rabbits

Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is important for meat production and human health, where the host genetics and its microbiome greatly contribute to its variation. The aim of this study is to describe the consequences of the genetic modification of IMF by selecting the taxonomic composition of the mi...
