[Retracted] Changes of Intestinal Microflora in Colorectal Cancer Patients after Surgical Resection and Chemotherapy

Figure 4

Beta diversity analysis of intestinal bacteria before and after treatment of colorectal cancer. Unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) cluster tree (a) and principle coordinate analysis (PCoA) plot based on Unweighted_unifrac distances show distinct bacterial community clusters between the control and CRC patients before and after treatments (b), PCoA plot shows distinct bacterial community clusters based on Jaccard (c), the heat map shows the ANOSIM test results of beta diversity indexes (Unweighted_unifrac, Weighted_unifrac, Bray, and Jaccard) among each group (d), and box diagram shows the OTU diversity based on the Jaccard distance of each group (e).
