Differentially abundant microbes in irradiated beagles. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) analysis was performed on the relative abundance data of the microbial community. (a) Cladogram. (b) LDA score. To uncover the differentially distributed taxa, data from the observed time points were first analyzed by the Kruskal–Wallis test with a significance set to 0.05. Those differentially distributed taxa were then used for LDA model analysis to rank the relative abundance significance. The LDA for significance was set to ±2, and the log(10) transformed score was shown as the effect size.
