The cecum, with the highest microbial colonization and the most abundant and di-verse microbial community in the broiler gut, is crucial for the overall performance in poultry. The full-length 16S rRNA gene of the cecal microflora in broilers was used for Alpha diversity, Beta diversity, and microbial composition analysis to in-vestigate differences in samples among groups.
