Correlation of tumor incidence with initial gut community structure. (A) Strip chart of tumor counts (with line at median) for each group. (B) NMDS plot based on ΘYC distances between samples at day 0 with biplot of the 15 OTUs most strongly correlated with the NMDS axes (stress = 0.21). Median tumor counts for each group are adjacent to their corresponding dots. NMDS, nonmetric dimensional scaling; OTU, operational taxonomic unit.
