Temporal shifts in host-associated microbiota characteristics across experimental treatment and sampling moments. Average within-individual differences (± 95% CI whiskers) of (a) OTU richness, (b) Shannon’s diversity and (c) weighted UniFrac distance between consecutive sampling moments, presented for each temporal shift (bicolored arrows) and stratified by experimental treatment (closed circle = high diversity, open triangle = low diversity). Associated statistics are detailed in Tables 3 and 4
