    <p>Rarefaction curves of the observed OTUs (<b>A</b>) for ileal samples. The community structure among the treatment groups did not differ according to the Principle component analysis (PCA) of 20 ileal samples (<b>B</b>). Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) showed the phylotypes that differ among treatment groups with statistical and biological significance (<b>C</b>). Histograms indicate the highest relative abundance of the families <i>Lachnospiraceae</i> (<b>D</b>) and <i>Ruminococcaceae</i> (<b>E</b>) in the ileal microbiota of the CTL group, and of the class <i>Gammaproteobacteria</i> (<b>F</b>) in the ileal microbiota of the CLG group. CTL: control group; LA: <i>L</i>. <i>acidophilus</i> supplementation group; CLG: Challenge group; LACLG: challenge group supplemented with <i>L</i>. <i>acidophilus</i>.</p

    Diversity and composition of cecal microbiota.

    <p>There were significant interaction effects of <i>L</i>. <i>acidophilus</i> and the infectious challenge on the number of observed OTUs (<b>A</b>). The PCA plot shows separation of bacterial communities between the CTL group and LA group (<i>R</i> = 0.42, <i>P</i> = 0.024), between the CTL group and CLG group (<i>R</i> = 0.404, <i>P</i> = 0.027), and between the CTL group and LACLG group (<i>R</i> = 0.50, <i>P</i> = 0.012) (<b>B</b>). Key phylotypes in the cecum responding to treatments were identified by the LEfSe algorithm (<b>C</b>). The circular cladogram (<b>D</b>) shows the taxa that are significantly associated with treatments.</p
