FMT shifted gut microbiota and increased the endometrial gland area in recipient L×Y gilts. a PCoA based on weighted UniFrac distance show a distinct fecal microbial composition intergroups. Each data point represents a sample from a distinct sow projected onto the first two principal coordinates (percent variation explained by each PCo is shown in parentheses). b Species diversity analysis of gut microbiota with alpha diversity indices including Observed species, Chao1, ACE, Shannon, Simpson and Good coverage. c Representative H&E-stained uterine sections. Scale bar, 1,000 μm and 200 μm. d Endometrial gland area normalized to endometrial area. Length (e) and weigh (f) of Uterine horn. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, data were shown as means ± SEM; n = 7
