From: High-starch diets alter equine faecal microbiota and increase behavioural reactivity
NMDS plots comparing community structure for the HS (high-starch) and HF (high-fibre) diets for testing period 1 (a) and testing period 2. (b) The significant behavioural results from the passive human test (time spent investigating and frequency of pace change) have been plotted over the top of the diets showing the direction towards which these behaviours are seen to increase. The arrows point towards the direction of increasing gradient with the length of the arrows indicating the proportion of correlation. The frequency of pace-change increases in the direction of the HS diet while the time spent investigating increases in the direction of the HF diet.
