Fig. 8From: Induction of mastitis by cow-to-mouse fecal and milk microbiota transplantation causes microbiome dysbiosis and genomic functional perturbation in miceThe genus-level taxonomic profile of archaea identified in cow and mouse mastitis (CCMF, CCMM, MCMF, MCMMT) and healthy (HCF, HCM, HMF, HMMT) samples. Stacked bar plots showing the relative abundance and distribution of the 20 top abundant archaeal genera, with ranks ordered from bottom to top by their decreasing proportion of relative abundances, with the remaining genera keeping as ‘Other genera’. Each stacked bar plot represents the abundance of archaeal genera in each sample of the corresponding category. Notable differences in archaeal population are those where the taxon is abundant in CM (cow and mouse) samples, and effectively undetected in the H- (cow and mouse) controls. The distribution and relative abundance of the archaeal genera in the study metagenomes are also available in Additional file 2Back to article page
