Analysis of the gut microbial community by 16S rRNA pyrosequencing from feces of HFD, HGD and HFrD groups. (A) operational taxonomic units levels; (B) Shannon’s diversity indices; (C) principal coordinate analysis of unweighted UniFrac analysis; (D) sample clustering results based on the unweighted UniFrac analysis; (E) relative abundances plot of bacterial phyla; (F) relative abundance cladogram of bacterial taxa. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM for 3 cages per group (** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001 vs. ND).
