Different abundances of cecal microbial communities between infected and non-infected group at 7 DPI. (A) Taxonomic cladogram generated from LefSe analysis showing significant difference in microbiota profile of non-infected (red) and S. Enteritidis-infected (green) at 7 DPI. (B) Differently abundant taxa detected with cut-off value of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) score >2.0. Non-infected enriched taxa are indicated with negative LDA score (red) and taxa enriched in S. Enteritidis-infected have positive LDA score (green). (C) Comparison of relative abundance levels of cecal microbiota at family level in treatment group was evaluated. The boxplot shows the quartiles above and below the median with dark line at center of the box denoting median, black dots showing the outlier. Abbreviation: NI_8 D, non-infected chicks at 8 days old; SE_7 DPI, S. Enteritidis-infected chicks at 7 days post infection.
