Relative abundance of different phyla at post weaning ages (A), different locations (B), and different regions of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) (C). The 7 and 27 represent 7 and 27 days, respectively, after weaning; M and D represent mucosa and digesta samples, respectively; PJ, DJ, and C represent proximate jejunum, distal jejunum, and mid-colon, respectively. Not_Assigned represents the sequence reads that were not assigned at the phylum level whereas Others represents the bacterial phyla whose counts were lower than 500.
