Abstract
ABSTRACT
Feeding high levels of zinc oxide to piglets significantly increased the relative abundance of ileal
Weissella
spp.,
Leuconostoc
spp., and
Streptococcus
spp., reduced the occurrence of
Sarcina
spp. and
Neisseria
spp., and led to numerical increases of all Gram-negative facultative anaerobic genera. High dietary zinc oxide intake has a major impact on the porcine ileal bacterial composition.
