Abstract

The microbiota colonized in gastrointestinal tract not only affect the digestion and absorption of nutrients, but also regulate the host metabolism and health. In recent years, the themes of gut microbiota about how to contribute host phenotypes, or participate in the microbe-host interactions of nutrition metabolism or host health have been hot topics. And in terms of animal nutritional regulation, gut microbiota have also become an important target. In this review, we take the case of pigs and outline current knowledge on gut microbiota, including the colonization rules under different conditions, the relationship between microbiota and host nutritional metabolism, intervention measures on gut health and microbe-host interactions, and moreover, we propose future perspectives in the end.
