Fig 1. Clustering and Taxonomic Composition of Flocks.
Clustering (A) and taxonomic composition (B) of the eight flocks according to 16S rRNA sequences of the intestinal microbial communities. Clustering of flocks was performed by canonical correspondence analysis and taxonomic classifications are based on the RDP naïve Bayesian classifier. Taxa with relative abundance <2.5% summed across all samples are excluded for clarity.
