HFD induced obesity causes change in gut microbiota in HLA-DR3 transgenic mice. Amplicon based microbial diversity of mice on a prediet (n=9), a high fat diet (HFD, n=5) or normal chow (NC, n=5). Alpha diversity measures obtained using (A) Observed taxa, (B) Shannon diversity. PCOA plot representing beta diversity index measured using (C) Bray-curtis dissimilarity metrics, (D) Weighted unifrac measures among the groups. (E) Bar plot representing significantly altered taxa between HFD and NC, and (F) HFD and prediet conditions following lefse analysis in R among all taxonomic ranks with lda_cutoff of 2 and wilcoxon_cutoff of 0.01, and kw_cutoff of 0.01 respectively. Kruskal wallis (KW) test was performed for (A–C) followed by pairwise comparison using wilcox test and p-value with Benjamini Hochberg (BH) correction. adonis test was performed for (D, E).
