(a) Fitting to the DMM model20 indicates optimal classification into two community types. (b) Plot for non-metric dimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination of Jensen–Shannon divergence values between stool samples using DMM. Red, community type 1; green, community type 2. (c) Relative abundances of the top 10 most abundant genera in the two community types. Box plot as in Fig. 1a. (d) Distribution of the healthy control, advanced adenoma and carcinoma samples in the community types. The areas of the columns scale with sample size, that is, n=55, 42 and 41, respectively. P=0.00072, Fisher test; P=0.0014, χ2-test.
