From: Bamboo shoot fiber prevents obesity in mice by modulating the gut microbiota

Figure 4

Bamboo shoot fiber modulated the structure and diversity of the gut microbiota.

(a) Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) and (b) Sample clustering results of the unweighted UniFrac distances of microbial 16S rRNA sequences from the V3-V4 region in cecal contents at week 6. (c) Alpha diversity analysis at the OTU level calculated on denoised sequences of mouse cecal microbiota. Six mice for each group. LF, low fat diet; HFC, high-fat diet with cellulose; HFBS, high-fat diet with bamboo shoot fiber.
