Dietary Cupplant (Silphium perfoliatum L.) flavonoid supplementation is associated with changes in cecal microbial diversity and community structure in broiler chickens.
Cupplant (Silphium perfoliatum L.) contains flavonoids that may influence the intestinal microbiota, but their effects in broilers remain poorly defined. We examined cecal microbial responses to dietary Cupplant flavonoids. Two hundred forty one-day-old broilers were assigned to four diets containing 0 (CH), 100 (S1),...
