Bacterial metabolic and other pathway differences in the fecal samples of AgNC-treated individuals vs. controls. As described in Fig. 7 of previously published article80 and in the Materials and Methods section, correlations between the PICRUSt-generated functional profile and QIIME-generated genus level bacterial abundance were calculated and plotted against treatment. Those genera with a LEfSe LDA score ≥2 between controls and BPA individuals are depicted. Metabolic pathway designations are delineated at the bottom of the figure. Shading intensity and size of the circles indicates the Kendall rank correlation coefficient between matrices. Orange/red indicates a positive correlation; whereas blue designates a negative correlationat a p value ≤ 0.05.
