“…Dietary fiber is the main source of energy for gut microbiota, which means that adding an appropriate amount of dietary fiber can increase the abundance of specific microorganisms ( Sappok et al., 2015 ). In addition, dietary fiber also increases the proportion of beneficial bacteria and reduces the proportion of pathogenic bacteria in the gut ( Guan et al., 2019 ; Jiang et al., 2019 ; Wu et al., 2020 ; Xu et al., 2020a ).…”

“…Short-chain fatty acids involved in the regulation of sow metabolism, immunity, and cell proliferation ( Li et al., 2019 ; Wu et al., 2020 ; Xu et al., 2020a ). Dietary supplementation of 3% purified fiber-mixture significantly increase the concentrations of butyrate and propionate in the feces of sows, which was related to the increase in the abundance of Eubacterium-hallii-group and Bacteroides in the gut ( Wu et al., 2020 ). Different types of dietary fiber contribute to the variation of SCFA ( Tokach et al., 2019 ).…”

“…The gut microbiota is sensitive to the physical and chemical properties of specific dietary fibers. Many recent studies have reported that the addition of dietary fibers to diets during pregnancy effectively alters sow gut microbiota composition and diversity, and their interaction affects the sow's nutritional, physiological, and immune processes in a variety of ways ( Cheng et al., 2018a ; Jarrett and Ashworth, 2018 ; Wu et al., 2020 ; Xu et al., 2020a ; Zhuo et al., 2020 ). The present review summarized the effects of dietary fiber on the composition and diversity of sows' gut microbes, as well as their interactions on the regulation of sows' gut health, and reproductive and lactation performances.…”

Dietary fiber is a critical nutrient in sow diet and has attracted interest of animal nutritionists for many years. In addition to increase sows’ satiety, dietary fiber has been found to involve in the regulation of multiple biological functions in the sow production. The interaction of dietary fiber and gut microbes can produce bioactive metabolites, which are of great significance to sows' metabolism and reproductive performance. This article reviewed the interaction between dietary fiber and gut microbes in regulating sows' gut microbial diversity, intestinal immune system, lactation, and production performance, with the aim to provide a new strategy for the use of dietary fiber in sow diets.

“…In addition, they found that elevating the proportion of fiber in the diet increases the α-diversity and β-diversity indices of the porcine gut microbiota [ 102 ]. Importantly, dietary fiber supplementation not only upregulates the proportion of beneficial bacteria but also diminishes the proportion of pathogenic bacteria in the gut [ 114 , 115 , 116 ], which may be conducive to the improvement of intestinal health and meat quality of pigs [ 117 , 118 ]. Nevertheless, dietary fiber from different sources has been investigated to have different effects on microbial composition and diversity.…”

Pork quality is a factor increasingly considered in consumer preferences for pork. The formation mechanisms determining meat quality are complicated, including endogenous and exogenous factors. Despite a lot of research on meat quality, unexpected variation in meat quality is still a major problem in the meat industry. Currently, gut microbiota and their metabolites have attracted increased attention in the animal breeding industry, and recent research demonstrated their significance in muscle fiber development and fat deposition. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the research on the effects of gut microbiota on pig muscle and fat deposition. The factors affecting gut microbiota composition will also be discussed, including host genetics, dietary composition, antibiotics, prebiotics, and probiotics. We provide an overall understanding of the relationship between gut microbiota and meat quality in pigs, and how manipulation of gut microbiota may contribute to increasing pork quality for human consumption.

The importance of dietary fiber (DF) in animal diets is increasing with the advancement of nutritional research. DF is fermented by gut microbiota to produce metabolites, which are important in improving intestinal health. This review is a systematic review of DF in pig nutrition using in vitro and in vivo models. The fermentation characteristics of DF and the metabolic mechanisms of its metabolites were summarized in an in vitro model, and it was pointed out that SCFAs and gases are the important metabolites connecting DF, gut microbiota, and intestinal health, and they play a key role in intestinal health. At the same time, some information about host-microbe interactions could have been improved through traditional animal in vivo models, and the most direct feedback on nutrients was generated, confirming the beneficial effects of DF on sow reproductive performance, piglet intestinal health, and growing pork quality. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of different fermentation models were compared. In future studies, it is necessary to flexibly combine in vivo and in vitro fermentation models to profoundly investigate the mechanism of DF on the organism in order to promote the development of precision nutrition tools and to provide a scientific basis for the in-depth and rational utilization of DF in animal husbandry. Key points • The fermentation characteristics of dietary fiber in vitro models were reviewed. • Metabolic pathways of metabolites and their roles in the intestine were reviewed. • The role of dietary fiber in pigs at different stages was reviewed.
