Comparison of detected CAZyme genes between and within samples.

<p>The numbers of unique and shared CAZyme genes between samples are represented as a Venn diagram. The phylum distribution of the core CAZyme genes of each group are shown in different colors (blue, Firmicutes; red, Bacteroidetes; yellow, Actinobacteria; purple, Proteobacteria; olive green, Lentisphaerae; brown, Verrucomicrobia). The CAZyme family composition of the cores is shown in rainbow colors.</p

Boxplots of detected CAZyme genes among sample groups.

<p>Each box plot diagram indicates the variation of the number of detected genes within sample groups (lean, anorexic and obese). The horizontal black lines inside the box plots indicate the mean number of detected CAZyme gene within the group sample. The horizontal green line indicates the overall mean of detected genes in the eight samples.</p

CAZy family content and the associated phyla classification of the core CAZome.

<p>A total of 318 CAZyme genes were commonly detected in the eight samples and composed the core CAZome. The proportions of corresponding CAZy families are shown in rainbow colors. The phylum distribution of the core CAZyme genes within each group are shown in different colors (blue, Firmicutes; red, Bacteroidetes; yellow, Actinobacteria; purple, Proteobacteria; olive green, Lentisphaerae; brown, Verrucomicrobia).</p
