Multivariate analysis of differences in the microbial profiles in the small intestine of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) infected and uninfected (naïve, N) C57BL/6 mice fed on normal control (NC), high fat (HF), or high glycaemic index (HGI) diet (A). Relative abundance of bacterial phyla in the small intestine of Nb and N mice fed on NC, HF, or HGI diet (B) Relative abundance of bacterial orders in the small intestine of Nb and N mice fed on NC, HF, or HGI diets (C), and abundance of defined taxa where significant differences between infected and uninfected groups were detected (D, E). Mice were infected once monthly from 6 weeks of age with Nb infective larvae. P values are based on ANOVA-like differential expression analysis and are representative of two experiments where n = 5/group. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
