From: Intrauterine growth restriction, defined by an elevated brain-to-liver weight ratio, affects faecal microbiota composition and, to a lesser extent, plasma metabolome profile at different ages in pigs

Microbial Alpha diversity within IUGR and NORM categories over time. Line plots showing the Alpha diversity values within each category (IUGR = pigs affected by intrauterine growth restriction; NORM = normal pigs) over time, measured with the Chao1 (panel A), Shannon (panel B), and InvSimpson (panel C) indexes. T1 = day 16 ± 0.6; T2 = day 63 ± 8.6; T3 = day 119 ± 11.4; T4 = day 162 ± 14.3 of age. The time significantly affected the Chao1 (P < 0.001) and Shannon (P < 0.001) indices
