Breed-specific differences of gut microbiota and metabolomic insights into fat deposition and meat quality in Chinese Songliao Black Pig and Large White × Landrace Pig Breeds

Abstract Background Gut microbiota ferment non-digestible substances to produce metabolites that accumulate in muscle and influence host metabolism. However, the regulatory mechanisms connecting gut microbiota, metabolites, and fat deposition across pig breeds remain unclear. This study explores the...
