Table 3 Relative abundance (%) of the most differentially abundant bacteria highlighted by LeFSe analysis (P ≤ 0.05 and LDA cutoff > 2.0) in sterile rectal swabs at birth in least-efficient (L-eff, n = 13) or most-efficient (M-eff, n = 13) heifer calves

From: Residual feed intake divergence during the preweaning period is associated with unique hindgut microbiome and metabolome profiles in neonatal Holstein heifer calves
