Fecal microbiome development through age-related bacterial community types (i.e., Enterotypes). A Heat map of the top 25 most abundant genera (rows) per Dirichlet multinomial mixtures identified DMM cluster/enterotype. B Transition model illustrating progression of samples through enterotypes (y-axis) per each age-point (top-x axis) among a cohort of pigs. Color intensity and line thickness are scaled by the number of piglets in the transition. C NMDS plot showing overall microbial composition with enterotypes (ET 1–5 represent Enterotypes). D, E Box plots showing the alpha diversity indices (richness and Shannon’s diversity) per each Enterotypes/DMM cluster
