HIV+ PI 797.73 ± 195.90 495.51 ± 123.81 30.52 ± 5.96 4.69 ± 0.73
HIV SN vs HIV+ EFV 0.0225 0.0375 0.0075 0.042

Bacterial diversity values are given as mean ± standard deviation at a rarefaction depth of 25,025 sequences per sample and correspond to the first three rows. Alpha diversity was compared between HIV SN and HIV+ EFV and HIV+ PI by means of a non-parametric t-test using the compare_alpha_diversity.py script of QIIME. P values were FDR-corrected for multiple comparisons and are shown in the last three rows. Abbreviation: PD_whole_tree: Faith´s phylogenetic diversity, HIV SN: HIV seronegative, HIV+ EFV: HIV-infected individuals on EFV-based and HIV+ PI: HIV-infected individuals on a PI-based regimen.
