Microbiome diversity and composition in CM and H samples of cows and mice after FMT (fecal microbiota transplantion) and MMT (milk microbiota transplantion). A Alpha diversity measures with Observed, Chao1, Shannon and Simpson indices to visualize the difference in microbiota structure in fecal, milk and mammary tissues of cows and mice. B Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) plot (measured on the Bray–Curtis distance method) showing significant microbiome diversity in different hosts i.e., cows and mice (p = 0.005, Kruskal–Wallis test) and sample groups (p = 0.001, Kruskal–Wallis test). C Non-metric multi-dimensional scaling (NMDS) plot (measured with Weighted-UniFrac method) representing significant microbial beta diversity in different hosts (cows and mice) (p = 0.005, Kruskal–Wallis test) and sample groups (p = 0.001, Kruskal–Wallis test). D NMDS plot showing phylum level microbiome (archaea, bacteria and viruses) diversity in all samples of the study metagenomes. The sample groups are- CCMF: cows clinical mastitis feces; HCF: healthy cows feces; CCMM: cows clinical mastitis milk; HCM: healthy cows milk; MCMF: mouse clinical mastitis feces; HMF: healthy mouse feces; MCMMT: mouse clinical mastitis mammary tissue; and HMMT: healthy mouse mammary tissue
