Extended Data Figure 6. Inefficient inter-generational transfer of taxa driven to low abundance by low dietary MACs.

Extended Data Figure 6

Heat map of abundance of high-confidence sub-OTUs (number of sequencing reads, columns) from feces of the diet switching group (top panel) and control group (bottom panel). Each row represents an individual mouse fecal microbiota from four weeks post-humanization (initial), while consuming the low-MAC diet (week 9, lo, shaded yellow), and four weeks after switching to the high-MAC diet (week 15, hi, shaded grey). Corresponding time points from controls are also shaded. Top row shows the taxanomic assignment for the OTUs plotted, Bacteroidetes are green, Firmicutes are orange, and others are grey.
