Microbial Abundance and Correlation Profiles Within the VM of Pregnant Women. (a) Stacked bar chart illustrating the percentage abundance of the 10 predominant species in the HG, Wo-ASB and ASB groups. (b) Box plot displaying the relative abundances of various taxa (at the family and phylum levels) among the groups. The bounding box represent first and third quartiles, center line indicates the median, and the whiskers extend to 1.5 times the interquartile range from the quartiles. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001. (c) Hierarchical clustering heatmap of the correlation matrix, computed using SparCC and plotted with the Seaborn (ver.0.13.1) clustermap() function, illustrating the abundance correlations among the 50 most predominant species within the VM of 180 pregnant women from the HG and ASB groups. CAC: Co-Abundance Cluster.
