a Comparison of an α-diversity index, observed features between mothers at 4–5 m (n = 28) and children at each time point (n = 22 at 3–5 d; n = 17 at 1 m; n = 21 at 4–5 m; n = 27 at 8–9 m; n = 28 at 1.5 y; n = 33 at 3 y). b Stacked bar chart of relative abundance of the intestinal microbiota at the phylum level. The error bars represent the means ± SD. Statistical significance between mothers and children at each age was evaluated by one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test in (a). p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
