Table 3. P and R values from clustering analysis using the Adonis and ANOSIM tests using unweighted and weighted UniFrac distances.
Unweighted UniFrac | |||
Apple supplementation (with vs without)a | Diet (HF vs LF)b |
Treatment (HF and LF with and without supplementation)c |
|
Adonis | P = 0.071 | P = 0.001 | P < 0.001 |
ANOSIM |
P = 0.071 (R = 0.07) |
P = 0.001 (R = 0.69) |
P = 0.001 (R = 0.54) |
Weighted UniFrac | |||
Adonis | P = 0.072 | P = 0.011 | P = 0.005 |
ANOSIM |
P = 0.129 (R = 0.05) |
P = 0.028 (R = 0.19) |
P = 0.009 (R = 0.18) |
Results are shown from the comparison of all samples with (n = 18) and without (n = 14) apple supplementation, regardless of dieta; from the comparison between the high-fat (HF, n = 22) and the low-fat (LF, n = 10) group, regardless of apple supplementationb; and from the comparison of all four treatment groupsc. These results are consistent with the clustering of samples in Fig 6.
