Correlation between the ileal mycobiota composition and NE severity. Chickens were sequentially infected with E. maxima and C. perfringens to induce NE. Intestinal lesions in individual chickens were scored. Spearman correlation analysis was performed between the ileal mycobiota profile and the intestinal lesion score and weight loss. A Spearman correlation at family, genus, and amplicon sequence variant (ASV) levels. B Heatmap displaying log2 transformations of fold changes in fungal abundance in NE chickens at the family, genus, and ASV levels, relative to mock-infected controls. Significance of Spearman correlations was subjected to FDR correction using the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure. *FDR < 0.05, **FDR < 0.01
