Predicting Growth and Carcass Traits in Swine Using Microbiome Data and Machine Learning Algorithms

In this paper, we evaluated the power of microbiome measures taken at three time points over the growth test period (weaning, 15 and 22 weeks) to foretell growth and carcass traits in 1039 individuals of a line of crossbred pigs. We measured prediction accuracy as the correlation between actual and...
