From: Maternal transmission gives way to social transmission during gut microbiota assembly in wild mice
The maternal transmission signal depends on age class similarity (adult-immature or adult-adult pair). Estimates (points) and their 95% credible intervals are plotted from Bayesian regression (brms) models controlling for other confounding variables, with pairwise microbiota similarity among hosts (Jaccard Index) as the response. Among mother-offspring pairs where one is an adult and the other immature (adult-immature pairs), the immature individual is always the offspring. Non-mother-offspring pairs include all other types of kinship pairs (unrelated pairs, father-offspring pairs, sibling pairs and half-sibling pairs)
