Fig. 3. Metabolites with significant differences in their fecal levels in gnotobiotic mice colonized with microbiota from discordant twin pair 196 as a function of diet.

Fig. 3

Data are from fecal samples collected three days before the end of (A) the first period of consumption of the Malawian diet (M1, day 16; abbreviated M1.D16), (B) RUTF treatment (RUTF.D10), and (C) the second period of Malawian diet consumption (M2.D26). Significant differences are defined as p<0.05 according to Student’s t-test. Procrustes analysis of data obtained from the transplanted microbiota from discordant co-twins in family 196 (fig. S13) revealed significant correlation between metabolic and taxonomical profiles on each diet with an overall goodness of fit (M2 value) of 0.380 (p<0.0001; 1,000 Monte Carlo label permutations) for all diets and microbiota.
