Differential taxa identified at follow up (T2) from ANCOVA models. Descriptive changes in abundance from baseline (T1) measures to follow up are displayed for each intervention group and effect size of abundance group difference at T2. Upward arrows represent an increased/more abundance, and downward arrows decreased/less abundance taxa.
