Median log2 relative abundances (RA) and effect sizes of different genera in healthy-normal tissue and tumor-adjacent-normal tissue. Negative effect size value indicates a higher relative abundance of genera in tumor-adjacent-normal tissue compared to healthy-normal tissue.

Bolded values indicate bacterial genera found to significantly differ between the study groups after adjusting for multiple testing.
