From: Use of Direct Gradient Analysis to Uncover Biological Hypotheses in 16S Survey Data and Beyond
Direct gradient analysis of lung explant OTUs at phylotype resolution constrained by anatomic location.
The bacterial communities of COPD lung explants were binned at a phylotype resolution and constrained ordinations were constructed based on the anatomic lung location from which the sample originated. Ordinations were CAP ordinations based on (A) Bray-Curtis distance, or (B) Jaccard distance; (C) RDA; (D) CCA. Individual samples were colored based on the location in the lung from which they were obtained.
