Figure 3

For each taxa at the family level present in at least 25% of samples, p-values for a null hypothesis of no difference by stool vs. swab vs. by participant. Red symbols are taxa that have a p-value that is significant at a 10% false discovery rate. Taxa higher in swab than stool have a negative x coordinate and taxa higher in stool than swab have a positive x-coordinate. Data was generated using closed-reference OTUs classified at the family level using 16S rRNA gene sequence reads.
