Extended Data Fig. 8

a, Quantitative bacterial 16S rDNA levels in candidemic (red, n = 38) and non-candidemic (green, n = 54) patient groups at indicated time points during allo-HCT. Ten samples were further excluded from Fig. 7 since they failed the 16S rDNA qPCR reaction. b, α-diversity of bacterial 16S rDNA in candidemic (red, n = 45) and non-candidemic (green, n = 57) patient groups, measured by Inverse Simpson index. The solid line represents the dynamic trend, with the shaded area indicating the 95% confidence intervals. The grey shaded area indicates the day of first positive fungal blood culture. The y-axis in panel (b) is rescaled with Logε. A subset of the 16S rDNA sequencing data has been previously reported7,20.
