Figure 1. Scatter plot showing the associations between the microbiome composition of pigs during early life (0-7 days), immediately pre-weaning (21 days), and after weaning (100 days). The largest shift is observed between pre-weaning and post-weaning samples. Alpha diversity is at its peak after weaning (shown as “microbiome diversity”).

Figure 1 – Hypothetical diagram depicting the microbiota response to an insult. 1) Healthy individuals have a normal degree of microbiota variation, which does not lead to disease (this is termed eubiosis, 2) A perturbation (e.g. heat stress) may lead to microbiota instability, causing disease. 3) Resilient microbiota will return to a state similar to that pre-perturbation, where there is no disease. 4) Microbiotas that are not resilient will not “bounce back”, thus suffering dysbiosis and a prolonged state of disease.

Eubiotics in pig production: Economics and performance

Eubiotics are seen as alternatives to things like zinc and antibiotic growth promotors for farms that can not use them, but if the global trend is that those products are no longer going to be available, should they be used as baseline?
