The α-diversity was evaluated by A the Chao1 index, B the Shannon index, and C the Simpson index. β-diversity was evaluated via D principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) based on the Bray–Curtis distance; E Microbial community bar plot at phylum level; F Microbial community bar plot at genus level; G Lefse (LDA effect size) analysis in which the LDA scores ≥ 3. n = 6 mice per group.
