From: Microbial communities in placentas from term normal pregnancy exhibit spatially variable profiles
Mode of delivery does not alter the microbial profiles. Multidimensional scaling (MDS) plot of validated samples by delivery method based on the Bray-Curtis, unweighted UniFrac, and weighted UniFrac distance metrics. The centroid of average distances per delivery method was not significant (PERMANOVA: Bray-Curtis: P = 0.49, Unweighted UniFrac: P = 0.060. Weighted Unifrac: P = 0.38). Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney test and PERMANOVA.
