Fig. 1: Infant gut microbiota in 984 infants ranging from 3 weeks to 2 years.
From: Gut microbiota wellbeing index predicts overall health in a cohort of 1000 infants

a Principal coordinates (PC) analysis on Pearson correlation distances of log-transformed relative abundances of microbial genera. Colour shows the infant age from 3 to 104 weeks. Parent microbiota is represented as black. b PC Component 2 score against age and birth mode. Group median values are represented by the large circles. c PC Component 1 score against age and birth mode. Comparisons of birthmodes (C-section and Vaginal ABX to vaginally born infants) are represented with P-values are provided are colour-coded by comparison at the bottom (b) / left (c) of the panel based on a two-sided T-test. d Significant associations between the PC ordination and factors influencing gut microbiota according to envfit.
