Effects of bilberry anthocyanin on the average richness and diversity of the cecal bacteria community. A–D The effects of AC on the Alpha-diversity (Chao1, Pd, Shannon, and Sobs indexes). E Principal co-ordinates analysis (PCoA) of bacterial communities in CON, ST, ACL, and ACH. F Venn diagram of bacterial communities in CON, ST, ACL, and ACH. CON, control group; ST, Salmonella infected group; ACL, low dose of anthocyanin group; ACH, high dose of anthocyanin group. Date were shown as mean ± SEM (n = 6), *P < 0.05
