Microorganisms exhibiting positive value fold changes (shaded in gray) indicate higher prevalence in caries-active boys compared to caries-active girls.  Microorganisms exhibiting negative value fold changes (unshaded) indicate higher prevalence in caries-active girls compared to caries-active boys.
