Pectin intervention reshaped gut microbiota composition, particularly increasing the abundance of A. muciniphila and E. coli. (A) α diversity analysis including Shanno, Simpson, Chao, and ACE index analysis; (B) β diversity analysis including PCoA and UPGMA analysis at phylum level; (C) Visualized ASV abundance at phylum level between groups; (D) The top ten contributing species and their abundance to the divergence between the two groups; (E) ASV-based evolutionary branching map, the circle radiating from inside to outside represents the phylum to genus level; (F) Bar graph of ASV-based differential pathways in PICRUSt2.
