Ecological Characterization of the Colonic Microbiota of Normal and Diarrheic Dogs
Figure 3
T-RFLP analysis of
fecal samples from two pets in a single household. Panel (a) community composition expressed
as % area of peaks under the T-RFLP electropherogram; bacterial groups were
combined at the taxonomic level of order. Panel (b) dendrogram based on
Bray-Curtis similarities of community composition among the samples from the
two dogs; numbers at nodes indicate percentage of trees having an equivalent
node in jackknife analysis. Panel (c) community richness parameter, Rr.
Panel (d) community functional organization, Fo. Panel (e) % change
parameter for community dynamics.
