Effects of dietary supplementation EOA on the β-diversity indices of cecal microbiota communities of the SE-infected broiler chickens at 23 days of age. (a) Principal component analysis (PCA) plot of the caecal microbiota based on weighted unifrac distance, (b) Principal co-ordinates analysis (PCoA) plot of the caecal microbiota based on weighted unifrac distance. A: broiler chickens with basal diet and no infection, B: broiler chickens with basal diet and SE infection, BM: broiler chickens with basal diet supplemented with 500 mg/kg EOA and SE infection, BH: broiler chickens with basal diet supplemented with 800 mg/kg EOA and SE infection. EOA: coated essential oils and organic acids mixture. SE: Salmonella Enteritidis
