16S rRNA Long-Read Sequencing of the Granulation Tissue from Nonsmokers and Smokers-Severe Chronic Periodontitis Patients

Figure 2

Heatmap profile of predicted functions of identified bacterial species between nonsmokers and smokers in granulation tissue of chronic periodontitis samples. Scatter plot and correlation estimates of bacterial species functional predictions between nonsmokers and smokers in granulation tissue of chronic periodontitis samples. Mean proportion of bacterial species functional predictions between nonsmokers and smokers in granulation tissue of chronic periodontitis samples. The significant differences observed between the two groups at 95% confidence level and p>0.05 are reported.
