Preterm formula influences the acquisition of the intestinal microbiome. (A) Alpha diversity calculations with Phyloseq software package. Standard diversity metrics were evaluated including observed richness, ACE, Shannon index, and InvSimpson. (B,C) Beta-diversity visualization with Non-metric Multi-dimensional Scaling (NMDS) and Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCoA) plots based on Bray-Curtis distances. (D) The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) value distribution histogram. Taxa meeting a linear discriminant analysis significant threshold > 4 are shown. c: class level; f: family level; g: genus level; o: order level; p: phylum level.
