Abstract

<h4>Importance</h4>Our present study showed that dietary supplementation with feed fermented by <i>Lactobacillus</i> could promote the growth performance of pigs, regulate the microbiota, and inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. It could prevent the accumulation of toxic substances and reduce odor emission from pig feces, thereby reducing environmental pollution. In addition, one key triumph of the present study was the isolation of <i>Weissella cibaria</i> ZWC030, and the strain could inhibit the production of skatole <i>in vitro</i> in our present results.
