Extended Data Fig. 3: BMI differences.
From: Bacterial SNPs in the human gut microbiome associate with host BMI
For each of the 40 BMI-associated SNPs that remained after the clumping stage, boxplots (center, median; box, interquartile range; whiskers, 5th and 95th percentiles; notches, 95% confidence interval around the median based on 1,000 times bootstrap) compare host BMI distribution of individuals with no bacteria of this species (left box; Methods), hosts of bacteria with the major allele (middle box; major allele frequency ≥ 0.99) and hosts of bacteria with the minor allele (right box; major allele frequency ≤ 0.01). The grey scale indicates the difference between medians. Groups were compared in a two-sided Mann-Whitney test, and p-values were Bonferroni corrected for 120 hypotheses (40 SNPs, 3 comparisons per SNP).
