  1. The intestinal microbiota in the jejunum among controls, resistant piglets, diarrheal piglets and recovered piglets were analyzed using metagenomics (1st, n = 3 before pooling) or using16S rRNA sequencing (2nd, n = 4 before pooling). The microbial diversity in these feces among controls, resistant piglets, diarrheal piglets and pre-diarrheal piglets were analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing (2nd, n = 4 before pooling)
  2. The ratios of Bacteroidetes: Firmicutes were calculated based on the relative percentage of Bacteroidetes to the relative percentage of Firmicutes
