Fig. 3From: Characterization of the hoof bacterial communities in feedlot cattle affected with digital dermatitis, foot rot or both using a surface swab techniqueShannon diversity index of bacterial communities of DD + FR control, DD + FR lesion, DD control, DD lesion, FR control, FR lesion and CH control. Pairwise analysis compares Shannon index of lesion and control skin microbial communities within a lesion type. *indicates an adjusted p value between 0.01 and 0.05, **indicates an adjusted p value < 0.01. DD = Digital dermatitis, FR = Foot rot, DD + FR = DD and FR co-infection in the same foot, CH control = control skin from completely healthy animals without any hoof lesionsBack to article page
