Principle coordinate analysis plot of weighted Unifrac distance metric generated from hoof bacterial communities showing A the effect of feedlots on bacterial communities, B the effect of sample type (lesion vs. control) on bacterial communities, C the effect of lesion type on bacterial communities, D the effect of lesion type on bacterial communities within feedlot A, E the effect of lesion type on bacterial communities within feedlot B, and F The effect of lesion type on bacterial communities within feedlot C. Squares represent control samples and circles lesion samples. 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 lesions
