Figure 6

The microbial co-occurrence network in each of the four dietary groups. The nodes represent the interacting OTUs, coloured based on their phylum taxa. The size of each node is proportional to the relative abundance of the OTU. The edges are the lines connecting the OTUs, with colour indicating the type of interaction (green for copresence/positive co-occurrence; red for mutual exclusion/negative co-occurrence). The edge thickness corresponds to the statistical significance (the P value) of the correlation—the thicker the edge, the lower the P value. The dominant species were indicated in ellipse nodes. The networks were produced by CoNet app, within Cytoscape software (version 3.7.1; http://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/conet). CON-CON, no enzymes or probiotics added; CON-PRO, probiotics added; ENZ-CON, enzymes added; ENZ-PRO, enzymes and probiotics added.
