Figure 4: Phylogenetic clustering of gut microbial taxa suggest that genetic relationships predict presence or absence of taxa in OB cohorts.

Figure 4:

(A) Taxa identified by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing were subjected to unsupervised clustering into 5 taxonomic clusters and grouped by color and treatment status. Each terminal node of the tree represents results from an individual fecal sample. (B) Clusters were assigned a color and each fecal sample result was grouped by cluster in (A) and then divided by HWC or OB status in order of participant ID number.
