A Strong Impact of Genetic Background on Gut Microflora in Mice

Figure 4

ARISA analysis of DNA from cecal contents of B6 on LabDiet or AIN diet. DNA amplified using primers corresponding to 16S and 23S ribosomal genes and oriented to contain the ribosomal intergenic spacer regions was resolved with a capillary DNA analyzer. The $x$-axis shows the size of the DNA peak, and $y$-axis shows the relative intensity of each peak. Each panel represents the average result of 6 mice.
