Figure 1

Box plot of S. mutans genotype diversity and caries activity. Number of S. mutans genotypes and caries activity at baseline was evaluated for 67 children. X axis: 1 = single genotype, 2 = 2 genotypes, >2 = more than 2 genotypes per individual at baseline. Y axis: Proportion of decayed surfaces (p-ds): total number of tooth surfaces present was included in the model as an offset variable. * Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test: χ2 = 6.8991, df = 2, P = 0.032.
