Fig. 2From: Thermal processing of food reduces gut microbiota diversity of the host and triggers adaptation of the microbiota: evidence from two vertebratesThermal processing of food affects gut microbial community of the catfish and mice. Thermal processing of food decreases alpha diversity of the microbial community of catfish fed a grass carp fillets and b small stone moroko, and of mice fed c grass carp fillets. Principal coordinate analysis based on unweighted UniFrac distance for d catfish and e mice, and weighted UniFrac distance for f catfish and g mice shows that thermal processing of food induces significant changes in the gut microbial community of the catfish and miceBack to article page
