Fig 2. The distribution of the major eukaryotic MOTUs detected in the fecal samples of HIV-infected patients and healthy subjects using cloning and sequencing methods.

The heatmap shows read counts for the 33 MOTUs identified as contributing most to the variance (up to 86% across all samples) as determined by Similarity Percentage (SIMPER) analysis. The dendrogram shows the clustering of samples based on Bray-Curtis similarity distance.
