Core microbiome by TB infection status group, showing in each case ASVs or Genus that are present in at least 50% of the individuals within that group. (a) ASVs unique and shared among all groups. Names indicated the ASV number and its best taxonomic classification up to the species level. (b) Genus that are unique and shared between all groups. To identify taxonomic groups with statistically significant differences in abundance between groups was performed with the compositional approach implemented in ANCOMBC.
