Fig. 7From: Differential effects of plant-based flours on metabolic homeostasis and the gut microbiota in high-fat fed ratsCecal microbiota analysis. Alpha diversity index ASV/Species Richness. Statistically significant differences between all diet groups were determined using a Kruskal–Wallis test followed by a pairwise Wilcox test with Bonferroni correction (A); *represents significance between diet groups and HFD (**p < 0.01). Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) using Bray–Curtis dissimilarity where each dot represents one animal (B). Stacked barplot showing the composition of the microbial community at genus level for each of the analyzed groups (C). N = 8–10 per group in all panelsBack to article page
