Different Airway Inflammatory Phenotypes Correlate with Specific Fungal and Bacterial Microbiota in Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Figure 6

Fungal-bacterial correlation network analysis at genus level in (a) COPD and (b) asthma. Each microbial taxon represented by a node, the round nodes represent the genus of bacteria, the square nodes represent the genus of fungi. The network represents significant Spearman’s correlation coefficients between the top 20 fungal and bacterial genera (FDR-corrected , ). The solid line indicated positive correlation, the dashed line indicated negative correlation, and the strength of correlation between genera was indicated by the dark and light colors and the thickness of the lines. The color of the nodes represented the different modules.
