aData expressed as the mean of clr-normalized counts ± standard deviation (sd). N, sample size.
bLMM estimate resulting from the global pattern of abundance in POST-FMT samples with respect to baseline information (PRE-FMT samples). Species altered as a consequence of FMT ordered by the size effect (LMM estimate).
