qPCR validation of the identified keystone microbiome markers. (A) Pearson correlation between relative abundance of the genera Methanobrevibacter, Enterococcus and Blautia from 16S rDNA sequencing and qPCR data. Colors and shapes of the plot symbols indicate samples from different treatment groups. Shaded area represents the 95% confidence interval for the regression line. (B) Relative abundance of the genera Methanobrevibacter, Enterococcus, and Blautia across treatment groups, as detected by qPCR. Variations between groups were tested by Wilcoxon rank-sum test with FDR correction. Only significant differences between groups (p < 0.05) were annotated. FDR, false discovery rate.
