Covariates significantly associated with faecal bacterial genera from infant and maternal faecal specimens. Bacterial genera significantly associated with covariates assessed in this study are summarized. When comparing proportions of bacterial genera observed among categorical covariates, higher proportions are denoted by up arrows. Up or down arrows next to numerical covariates indicate significant associations observed with either an increase or decrease in the proportion of significant genera associated with these numerical covariates. Unique operational taxonomic unit (OTU) numbers are assigned to unclassified taxa.
