Taxonomic Composition and Abundance Analysis of Cecal Microbiota at the Genus Level. Fig. 5A presents the taxonomic composition analysis of the top 25 most abundant genera in the cecal microbiota. Fig. 5 details the abundance levels of genera with significant differences across groups at the genus level (A1, A4); the abundance levels of these genera under different dietary protein levels (A2, A5); and the abundance levels of these genera under different levels of EDP supplementation in the feed (A3, A6).

Note: Different lowercase letters above the box plots indicate significant differences (P < 0.05), while different uppercase letters indicate highly significant differences (P < 0.01).
