Dendrogram showing the hierarchical clustering of the microbial population (a) and predicted metabolic pathways (c). The scale shown in (a) and (c) represent the branch lengths, estimated as a function of the similarity between the samples based on Euclidean distances, and clustering the samples with Ward’s clustering algorithm. The 3D plots based on the Bray–Curtis dissimilarity matrix depict the variability across the selected principal components for the microbial population (b) and predicted metabolic pathways (d). The explained variances are shown in brackets in (b) and (d). Images generated through MicrobiomeAnalystR package (https://github.com/xia-lab/MicrobiomeAnalystR) built for R121.
