Rumen-feces microbial composition fluctuates with age. (A) Alpha diversity of young (Chao1 index; Simpson index; Shannon index). (B) Alpha diversity of adult (Chao1 index; Simpson index; Shannon index). (C) Relative abundance of top10 phyla of young. (D) Relative abundance of top10 phyla of adult. MC: feces of adult goats. IC: feces of young goats. MR: rumen of adult goats. IR: rumen of young goats. The data were analyzed with unpaired t tests, and the data were expressed as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001.
