The analysis of relative abundance of the fecal microbiome at phylum level revealed that Firmicutes were higher in the more viral-resistant cohort, and correlated with viral acquisition. a Gut taxa composition from all 18 animals is shown. b Gut taxa composition from each animal is shown. c The relative abundance of Firmicutes was compared between the two cohorts using a Mann-Whitney test. Correlation between relative abundance of Firmicutes and viral target cells and immune activation PCA-1 were performed using Spearman’s tests. d The relative abundance of Spirochaetes, Proteobacteria, and Bacteroidtes were compared between the two cohorts using Mann-Whitney tests. Mean ± SEM are shown
