Effect of BLJ on cecal microbiota relative abundance (at a general level) of broiler chickens challenged with NE. a) Overall fecal microbiota composition of the samples at the genus level. b) Comparison of the relative abundances of the five bacterial genera. A = a basal diet + unchallenged; B = a basal diet with 500 mg/kg of BLJ + unchallenged; D = a basal diet + challenged; and G = a basal diet with 500 mg/kg of BLJ + challenged
