Figure 2. Relative Abundance and Prevalence of the Most Frequently Occurring Species in the Early Preterm Infant Microbiome.

Figure 2

Fourteen of the most prevalent species observed in the preterm infant microbiome are presented. E.coli is an outlier with a median relative abundance exceeding 0.80 in each of the three collection windows presented. Relative abundance calculations include only samples where the infant carried the organism with at least 1% relative abundance. Prevalence is indicated as red circle, mean relative abundance as a blue diamond, and median relative abundance as box and whisker plot.
