Afribiota study of small intestine fluids and feces from stunt children compared to non stunt. a PCoA plot the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity index of the samples. Duodenal samples are colored in blue, light blue for Gastric and orange for Feces. PERMANOVA test based on the sample type yielded a p-value of 0.001. b Alpha diversity analysis of non-stunt (NN), moderately stunted (MCM) and severely stunted (MCS). Overlapping confidence interval indicates that the diversity are not different between NN, MCM and MCS in duodenal, gastric and feces samples. c Volcano plot of differentially abundant genera in the feces of stunt children compared to non-stunt. We plot the log2 fold change against the -log 10 adjusted p-value. Microbial taxa in red correspond to an increase of abundance and in blue to a decrease abundance. Labeled dots correspond to taxa from oropharyngeal core microbiota. d Log 2 abundance of differential abundant taxa from oropharyngeal core microbiota in stunt and non-stunt children feces
