Increased Proportion of Fiber-Degrading Microbes and Enhanced Cecum Development Jointly Promote Host To Digest Appropriate High-Fiber Diets

Increased Proportion of Fiber-Degrading Microbes and Enhanced Cecum Development Jointly Promote Host To Digest Appropriate High-Fiber Diets

ABSTRACT Previous study found that appropriate high-fiber diet (containing 19.10% total dietary fiber [TDF], treatment II) did not reduce apparent fiber digestibility of Chinese Suhuai finishing pigs and increased the yield of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), but too high-fiber diet (containing 24.1...
