Figure 5. Correspondence analysis of the bacterial community found in throat samples.

Figure 5

Each correspondence analysis plot represents the relative abundance values for the OTUs from the 16S rRNA pyrosequencing at day 0, day 8–13, 1 and 4 years. A: Controls; A, B, and C. B: Antibiotic treated patients; D, E, and F. Percentages of inter-sample variation explained, by the two axes are shown in the figures. In controls A–C and patients D–F the third axis represented 25%, 27%, 26%, 22%, 24%, and 20% of the variation.
