  1. The table contains data on significantly different phyla (P-value < 0.05) with a proportion greater than 0.5% of the total bacterial community. aMean values signify the average proportion of the phylum. bP-values < 0.05 indicate significant differences in proportion between the two groups (AD events and non-AD days).
