Taxonomic cladogram generated from LEfSe analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences and the LDA scores of four groups were obtained by LEfSe analysis. a In a cladistic diagram, the circles radiating from the inside out represent the classification level from phylum to genus. The small circles in each classification represent subgroups of that order, and the diameter of the small circles is proportional to the relative abundance. b Histograms of the distribution of LDA values show organisms with large LDA scores, which are biomarkers for statistical differences between groups. The length of the histogram indicates the degree of influence of different organisms (LDA score)
