Fig. 4 — a Boxplots (median; IQR; range) of microbiota similarity between hindmilk and infant’s feces, comparing within mother–infant pairs to between mothers and unrelated infants at both 5 and 9 months of infant age. Statistical significance was evaluated by unpaired t-tests, with asterisks indicating **p < 0.01. b Scatter dot plots of percentage of ASVs shared between hindmilk and infant’s feces at 5 and 9 months of infant age. Line and error bars indicate average ± sd. Statistical significance was evaluated by paired t-tests with asterisks indicating *p < 0.05 and ***p < 0.001. c Barplots of bacterial genera with most ASVs shared between hindmilk and infant’s feces. Only ASVs shared in at least 15% of all mother–infant pairs at either 5 or 9 months of infant age were included. d, e Bar and dot plots of prevalence (within mother–infant pairs) and average relative abundance of ASVs shared between hindmilk and infant feces, in at least 15% of mother–infant pairs at d 5 months and e 9 months of infant age.
