Disentangling the causal relationship between rabbit growth and cecal microbiota through structural equation models
Abstract Background The effect of the cecal microbiome on growth of rabbits that were fed under different regimes has been studied previously. However, the term “effect” carries a causal meaning that can be confounded because of potential genetic associations between the microbiome and production tr...
