Short-term effect of early life rearing systems on body weight and gut microbiome at 63 days of feeding (dof). a Individual fish body weight, b alpha-diversity (richness and Shannon diversity index) of gut microbiome. Values are presented as mean ± standard error, the presence of different letters indicates a significant difference between systems (P < 0.05). c Venn diagram showing the shared amplicon sequence variants (ASV with prevalence > 33% in each treatment) between the gut microbiome of fish originated from FTS and BFS. d principal component analysis (PCoA) showing the distribution of gut microbiome of fish originated 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 system
