Abundance of bacterial genera involved in bile acid (BA) metabolism in offspring cecal contents. A: relative abundance of top 20 genera of bacteria present in cecal contents of high-fat/high-sucrose (HF/HS) and chow (CON) offspring. B: percent abundance of five specific genera of bacteria that can metabolize bile acids (Lactobacillus, Bacteroides, Bifidobacterium, Eubacterium, and Clostridium). Quantitative data presented as means ± SE with n = 10 in each group and ≥4 separate litters represented in each group. Male and female offspring included in each section. P values as indicated on graph for t tests.
