Fig. 5: Differentially abundant genera after the suspension of oral health practices.

Genera with abundances that demonstrated positive slopes over the gingivitis induction period. Top eight genera by relative abundance are shown here, with full results in Fig. S20. Sampling time points are on the x-axis and CLR-transformed abundance values are on the y-axis. Mean abundance values for day 0 and day 21 are provided for reference. P values are FDR-adjusted for multiple hypothesis test correction and results with p ≤ 0.05 considered significant.
