Schematic representation of the intestinal microbiota transplant (IMT) from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) and subsequent nutritional assay carried out for assessing the effect of the diet in the gut bacterial communities. After the antimicrobial (AM) treatment, one group of gilthead seabream (n = 15) was fasted for 17 days in order to assess the effect of AMs in the absence of dietary influences. The rest of the gilthead seabream (n = 50) were submitted to the IMT 24 h post-AMs, and in order to assess the effect of the diet, gilthead seabream given the IMT were divided in two tanks (n = 25 per tank): one which continued with the GSB diet, and the other fed with the salmon diet.
