Fig. 4 — A greater number of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) was exclusively shared between IS-BB in AAs compared to HC subjects and included taxa previously associated with asthma. a Number of OTUs associated with specific sample type in AAs, ANAs, and HC subjects. Values are shown as a median (IQR). b A greater number of OTUs was shared exclusively (in at least 20% of subjects) between IS and BB in AAs and ANAs compared to HCs, which was greater than those shared in BB-OW (Welch’s corrected t test and ^&Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test; p > 0.2 not shown). c Faith’s Phylogenetic diversity (PD) of taxa shared between paired IS-BB samples trended to be higher in AAs and ANAs compared to HCs (Mann Whitney test; p > 0.2 not shown). d Frequency distribution of specific genera (present in at least 20% of participants for each group) for OTUs shared exclusively between IS-BB was distinct in AAs and HCs and included known asthma-associated taxa (Chi-square test; p > 0.05 not shown)
