aDetection rate represents the percentage of fecal samples that contained specific bacterial groups/genera/species above the detection threshold.
bMeans and standard deviations are indicated.
cStatistical differences were examined using the Mann-Whitney U test.
dq values were calculated using the Benjamini and Hochberg method.
eStatistical differences were analyzed using Fisher’s exact test.
