Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) results.
(A) DGGE profiles. 12 DGGE profiles of the PCR products from the V3 region of the 16S rRNA gene from the PC and 5PD cecal digesta and mucosal samples on day 28. Bands identified from the 16S rRNA gene clone libraries are numbered and indicated with square frames. The bands are also described in Table 3. (B) Clustered DGGE profiles. UPGMA clustering diagram of Dice similarity indices of the 12 DGGE profiles. (C) Calculated diversity indices. Diversity indices were used to compare the PC and 5PD cecal digesta and mucosa samples on day 28. Triplicate observations from three individual piglets were made and data are means ± standard errors (SE).
