The difference in the rumen microbiome between cows with low (LBCS) and high (HBCS) body condition scores according to 16S rRNA gene sequencing data. A Changes in alpha diversity at the OTU level. B Changes in beta diversity at the OTU level. The P value was tested with PERMANOVA. C Community biplot analysis at the phylum and genus levels. D Genus co-occurrence network between LBCS and HBCS based on Spearman correlation analysis. Each node represents a bacterial genus; the node size represents the relative abundance of each genus per group. The line refers to the Spearman coefficient. Red and blue lines represent positive and negative interactions between nodes, respectively
