Compositional PCA plots of chicken colon microbiota using unweighted UniFrac distance data, categorized by time point and group (Day_Group). a PCA analysis of RIR and VALO chicken colon microbiota grouped by day. The samples were collected at day 7 of age (D7), day 14 (D14), day 21 (D21), day 28 (D28) and day 32 of age (D32). b PCA analysis of H9N2 infected and uninfected, control RIR chickens at day 0 (D0) pre-challenge, day 2 (D2), day 4 (D4) and day 10 post-challenge (D10). Chickens were challenged with recombinant A/chicken/Pakistan/UDL01/08 H9N2 LPAIV at D0 of experiment. c PCA analysis of H9N2 infected RIR and VALO chickens at day 0 pre-challenge (D0), day 3 (D3) and day 14 (D14) post-challenge. Chickens were challenge with recombinant A/chicken/Pakistan/UDL01/08 H9N2 LPAIV at D0 of experiment. PC1, PC2; percent variables explained (%)
