Comparison of α and β diversity. (a, b) Two indicators of α diversity detected in NS and YZXJ group. Chao 1 is represented as the bacteria abundance, and Simpson index reflects the bacteria diversity. (c) Unifrac distance of β diversity is used to calculate the distance between samples by using the evolutionary information and further constructing weighted Unifrac distance through OTUs abundance information. (d) Intergroups difference was greater than intragroup difference, but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.117).
