Relative abundance of jejunal mucosa-associated microbiota at phylum level in nursery pigs fed diets with SPC replacing fish meal, poultry meal, and blood plasma. Rach pattern represents a specific bacterial phylum. The relative abundance of phylum that did not achieve 0.5% were considered ‘Others’. Dietary treatments were supplemented with SPC (X-Soy 200, Selecta, MG, Brazil) replacing none (NC), all animal protein supplements (PC), fish meal (RFM), poultry meal (RPM), or blood plasma (RBP) in nursery diets. Proteobacteria: NC vs. PC (P < 0.05), NC vs. RPM (P < 0.05). Firmicutes: NC vs. RPM (P = 0.064). Bacteroidetes: NC vs. PC (P = 0.087), NC vs. RPM (P = 0.089). SPC = soy protein concentrate.
