Microbial diversity analyses comparing the participants’ gut microbiota based on their APOE alleles. (Panel a) Beta diversity analysis, 2D NMDS (PERMANOVA p = 0.284; ANOSIM p = 0.051; PERMDISP p = 0.987). Alpha-diversity among species using Obs (Panel b: p = 0.658) and Faith PD (Panel c: p = 0.561) index. Taxonomic bar plots show the relative abundance of bacteria at the phyla (Panel d) and genus (Panel e) level. (Panel f) Variability in the Firmicute/Bacteroidota ratio.
