  1. PERMANOVA tests demonstrated that there were significant differences between the microbiota compositions of the two organs in the same fish health condition and between the same organ in the healthy and the diseased fish (See also Fig. 1)
  2. *Healthy versus diseased. **Intestine versus spleen
