Protein restriction and succedent realimentation affecting ileal morphology, ileal microbial composition and metabolites in weaned piglets

Dietary protein restriction is one of the effective ways to reduce post-weaning diarrhoea and intestinal fermentation in piglets, but it may also reduce growth performance. The compensatory growth induced by subsequent protein realimentation may solve the issue. However, little research has been don...
