Beta diversity of general and HPB analysis among different samples. In the beta diversity study, the differences between the samples were measured by the weighted UniFrac distance and the unweighted UniFrac distance. The smaller the value, the smaller the differences in species diversity. In each diamond-shaped grid, the upper and lower values represent the weighted UniFrac distances and the difference between the samples, respectively. Graph (a) indicates bacterial diversity, and graph (b) indicates the diversity of human pathogenic bacteria.
