Correlation of the shrimp gut microbiota with the body weight of shrimps. (A) Variation of gut microbiota structure along PC1 and PC2 of PCoA based on Bray-Curtis distance. The variations between two groups were analyzed by Mann-Whitney test (B) The observed species and Shannon diversity index are shown for each group at each time point. Mann-Whitney test was used to analyze variation between two groups. (C) The changes of body weight of shrimps in each group across age. Comparisons of body weight between two groups by t-test. Data are shown as means ± s.e.m. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 (with FDR adjust). Sample sizes are the same as Fig. 1.
