Figure 8From: 16S gut community of the Cameron County Hispanic Cohort Heat maps showing the strength of OTU correlations calculated by the SparCC algorithm. These heat maps represent the strength of pairwise OTU-OTU co-occurrence/co-exclusion calculations made by the SparCC algorithm. Scores range from −1, a perfect negative correlation, to 1, a perfect positive correlation. (A) Cameron County Hispanic Cohort subjects. (B) Human Microbiome Project subjects. (C) Type 1 diabetes cohort subjects. (D) Elderly Irish cohort subjects. For (A), (B), and (C) only OTUs with a correlation above 0.4 were plotted for clarity. For (D), OTUs with a correlation above 0.3 were plotted.Back to article page
