Environmental and host factors affecting porcine fecal microbial community structure. (A) Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) found significant effects of pen, sex and kinship on fecal microbial community structure. (B) Comparison of Unweighted UniFrac distance among full-siblings, half-siblings, and unrelated individuals. (C) Pen shows significant effect on fecal microbial community. The pigs housed in the same pen showed a higher similarity of microbial composition than pigs in different pens. (D) Significant difference of alpha-diversity of fecal microbial community between boars and gilts (***P < 0.001 for Student's t-test; mean ± SEM).
