Figure 4

Differences in OTUs between control pigs (Day 0) and infected pigs (2 days post-infection) at the ileum mucosa, ileum content and faeces. (a) Venn diagram showing the overlapping of differentially expressed OTUs in ileum mucosa, ileum content and faeces between Day 0 and Day 2 p.i., pigs. (b) Heatmap illustrating the mean relative abundance of multiple OTUs at the ileum mucosa of non-infected control pigs (green) and Day 2 p.i. infected pigs (red). White colour indicates low abundance while dark blue high values of abundance. Dendrogram was built using hierarchical cluster analysis with Bray-Curtis dissimilarity indices. OTUs in the area included in the red frame belong to the family Veillonellaceae (Mitsuokella, Megasphaera, and Dialister genera).
