PCA loadings biplot. Open circle (Ctrl): control rats ( ); dots (LN): rats receiving standard chow and L-NAME in drinking water ( ); triangles (LN + FBL): rats receiving L-NAME in drinking water and fermented bluberry + L. plantarum HEAL19 added to feed ( ); open triangles (LN + PML): rats receiving L-NAME in drinking water and three phenolic acid mixture + L. plantarum HEAL19 added to feed ( ). The numeric numbers indicate the sizes in bases of the detected T-RFs representing different bacterial groups. Q1–Q4 denote 1st to 4th quadrants.
