Bacterial community composition at genus level. Age is represented with months (ex. 2_tissue: Tissue biopsies of 2 months old mice). (a) The average relative abundance of each genus detected in each sample of cotton swab and tissue biopsies from each age group are shown alongside each other. The average (Av.) of each set of samples is shown in the last column of each group. (b) Box plots representing the average abundance of the genera Neisseria and Streptococcus, each dot represents one sample. For the means, standard deviation of the mean (SEM), variance, and 95% confidence intervals of each genus go to Table S1 (Supplementary Materials).
