Fig. 3

Occurrence of inoculum-predominant bacterial genera in the inoculum, and in the rumen (a) and the colon (b) of three lamb groups after inoculation. The 50 genera with significant difference in relative abundance among the lamb groups were plotted. The heatmap scale indicates the normalized relative abundance (Z-scores) of each genus. C: Control; IBW: Inoculation before weaning; IDW: Inoculation during weaning. *: P < 0.05; **: P < 0.01
