Fig. 5

Rumen microbiota, differences by castration timing. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination plots based on Bray–Curtis distances at the genus level for (A) Pre-weaning, (B) At weaning, and (C) Post-weaning collection days, colored by castration timing group. P value and R2 values from PERMANOVA testing (D) Differential abundance of microbial phyla between castration timing groups at post-weaning day expressed as log2 fold change (LogFC). Statically significant logFC (adjusted P < 0.05) are depicted in red and non-significant in grey. Circle diameter is proportional to the average abundance of each phylum across all samples
