Changes of intestinal microbiota in three groups. A The Chao index analysis showed that there was no difference between the 3 groups. B The Simpson index analysis between 3 groups. C PCA showed that there was no significant difference between the 3 groups. D PLS-DA analysis showed that the 3 groups could be distinguished and clustered into three groups. E. The heatmap of the species population shows the species abundance of each sample at the genus level. F Venn diagram analysis showed the shared and unique OTUs in the 3 groups. Error bars represent means ± SEM, * p ≤ 0.05, ** p ≤ 0.01,n = 6 in each group. ‘Con’ instead of ‘Control’, ‘Sb’ instead of ‘CP + Sb’
