Fig. 2From: Impact of early-life rearing history on gut microbiome succession and performance of Nile tilapiaThe water quality of two early life rearing systems and effect on individual body weight and gut microbiome of Nile tilapia at 15 days of feeding (dof). a water quality (pH, conductivity and total inorganic nitrogen) in system water during larval culture, b individual fish body weight, c alpha-diversity (richness and Shannon diversity index) of gut microbiome. Values are presented as mean ± standard error, the presence of different letters indicates the significant difference between systems (P < 0.05). d Venn diagram showing the shared amplicon sequence variants (ASV with prevalence > 33% in each treatment) between the gut microbiome from FTS and BFS. e principal component analysis (PCoA) showing the distribution of gut microbiome from FTS and BFS, P value was calculated based on one-way PERMANOVA. Capital letters refer to replicate tanks (A, B. C), numbers refer to fishes sampled for gut microbiome per tank (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). FTS, flow-through system; BFS biofloc systemBack to article page
