Global overview of the host - nemabiome - gut microbiota system
(A) Taxonomic bar plots of the top 20 dominant genera in the gut microbiota according to the experimental groups. Colors denote microbial genera. Taxonomic inference relied on the QIIME closed-reference approach against the SILVA database at a sequence similarity level of 99%.
(B) Relative abundances measured in the nemabiome community in high shedders using ITS-2 barcodes.
(C and D) Violin plots showing the concentration of fecal DNA and pH in feces, respectively, according to the HIGH and LOW control groups. Boxplots show the median, 25th, and 75th percentile, the whiskers indicate the minima and maxima, and the points lying outside the whiskers of boxplots represent the outliers. Adjusted p values from two-sided Wilcoxon rank-sum test.
