Figure 4

Distinct predictive metabolic profile in the placental microbiome. Heat map demonstrating the predictive functional profiling of microbial communities in the placenta, gut and oral samples, using 16s rRNA gene sequences. Stronger intensity of red indicates higher pathway activity and blue lower activity. Significant microbial functional pathways determined by the LEfSe algorithm are displayed in this heat map (LDA score > 3.0). Bolded pathways were significantly enriched in the placenta in comparison to the maternal oral and gut microbiome.
