Fig. 4

Taxonomic classification of ASVs associated with liver abscesses. A Number of ASVs per bacterial family with higher relative abundances in normal animals than abscessed animals. B Number of ASVs per bacterial family with higher relative abundances in abscessed animals than normal animals. In both panels colors indicate results for two different studies. Red arrows indicate taxonomic families with a significant enrichment of differentially abundant ASVs (Fisher’s exact test p-value < 0.05). Black arrows indicate families significantly underrepresented among differentially abundant ASVs
