Figure 2.
Relative abundances of Lactobacillus, Gardnerella, Prevotella, and Streptococcus ASVs in the NL (A), BV (B), and AV group (C). Bars are colored according to ASV. Only ASVs that accounted for at least 5% of sequences in at least two samples are visualized. ASVs were classified by EZBioCloud (27) as the closest matching species (allowing for a maximum of two mismatches). AV: aerobic vaginitis, BV: Bacterial Vaginosis, NL: reference group with a normal lactobacillary microbiota (Lactobacillary grade I-IIa, no signs of AV or BV) according to microscopy.
