Changes in butyrate producing genes. The change in relative abundance of genes in four pathways responsible for butyrate production as curated by Vital et al. [42]. Rows represent individual genes, and the columns represent individual animals at each study time-point. Asterisks represent if the gene shows a statistically significant linear decrease through SIV infection and ART based on linear mixed effects models. The final time-point of 21 mo ART has only four animals since two of the study animals were euthanized at the 18 mo ART time-point.
