Effect of intramammary infection with E. coli and subsequent treatment with ceftiofur hydrochloride (48, 72, 96, 120, and 144 h) on relative abundance of the 25 most prevalent families in unchallenged untreated quarters (a, N = 11), in unchallenged ceftiofur-infused quarters (b, N = 5), in challenged untreated quarters (c, N = 3), and in challenged and ceftiofur-treated quarters (d, N = 5). Black diamonds represent experimental infection with 100 CFU of E. coli, and grey circles represent intramammary treatment with ceftiofur
