Important discriminatory metabolites identified by clustering, correlation and multivariate analysis between the BS and SS groups. (A) PLS-DA analysis displaying the grouped discrimination of the BS and SS groups by the first two PCs. (B) Hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) for the BS and SS metabolites based on their z-normalized abundances. (C) Variable Importance in Projection (VIP) scores of the important discriminatory metabolites. (D) Scatter plot of top 15 KEGG pathway enrichment for differential metabolites in the BS and SS groups. Panel A was produced using metaX (v1, https://github.com/wenbostar/metaX), and panel A–D were produced using R (v3.4.3, https://www.R-project.org).
