1. Effects of FMT in sows and/or offspring on intestinal histology in offspring, including villus height (A), villus width (B), crypt depth (C), villus height/crypt depth ratio (D), villus area (E), number of goblet cells per villus (F), and number of goblet cells per µm villus height (G).
Effects of FMT in sows and/or offspring on intestinal histology in offspring, including villus height (A), villus width (B), crypt depth (C), villus height/crypt depth ratio (D), villus area (E), number of goblet cells per villus (F), and number of goblet cells per µm villus height (G). Data are from 36 pigs. At the sow treatment level, n = 18 offspring each from control and FMTP sows. At the offspring treatment level, n = 12 each in the CON, FMT1, and FMT4 groups. *, significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) at sow × offspring treatment level; φ, a sow treatment effect was seen (P ≤ 0.05).
