Human Gut Microbiota Associated with Obesity in Chinese Children and Adolescents

Figure 3

Functional changes derived from the obesity-associated gut microbiota. All significantly different level 3 pathways are illustrated and colored according to level 2 pathway categories. Ordinate indicated metabolic pathways; different colors represent the classification of different metabolic pathways. Each pathway has two box figures, which represent the expression of obese children and control samples in this metabolic pathway. Significant changes in the relative abundance of estimated genes summarized by KEGG pathway annotations between obese children and controls are shown with P values < 0.05.
