Alpha and beta diversity of the intestinal microbiome in diet-altered EAU mice. (a) Shannon index alpha diversity at 1 (1w) and 2 weeks (2w) after immunization in high Fat-, regular Chow-, No Fiber-, vs. pectin-fed EAU mice. (b) Weighted unifrac beta diversity principle coordinates analysis plots at 1 and 2 weeks after immunization in pectin versus fat-fed EAU mice. n = 5–18 animals/group; p < 0.05*, p < 0.01**, p < 0.0001****; means are shown in the graph.
