The early-life fecal microbiota is associated with litter of origin but not with susceptibility to ETEC F4ab-mediated post-weaning diarrhea in CHCF1 genotyped pigs
We did not find major differences in the fecal microbiota between CHCF1 genotypes, pre- or post-weaning, that could help explain subsequent susceptibility to ETEC F4ab-mediated PWD. Litter explained a major part of the variation in the overall fecal bacterial community between pigs in the study.
