Changes in microbial population at phylum level in the normal and thalassemia groups. (a) A boxplot displaying the relative abundance (%) of five main phyla in normal (blue) and disease (red) groups. A Wilcoxon two-sided test was used to calculate the significance (p-value < 0.05). (b) Boxplots showing the log-ratios of phyla Proteobacteria and Fusobacteria to those of the phylum Bacteroidetes. All log–ratios are statistically significant, based on a two-sample t-test (*** p < 0.001).
