Association of BoLA-DRB3.2 polymorphism with interrelationship dynamics of intramammary bacterial communities. Co-occurrence network inference (CoNet) was used to measure the impact of BoLA-DRB3.2 polymorphism on the interrelationship (connectedness) patterns of intramammary bacterial communities during the first week of lactation. The grouped bar charts on the left side of each row show the average proportions of bacterial phyla within the intramammary microbiota of different BoLA-DRB3.2 variants (BstYa and BstYb) at different sampling time points (a day 0, b day 1, c day 6). Stacked bar charts in the middle and on the right side of each row show the total number of connections (significant positive or negative relationships) observed among OTUs belonging to major bacterial phyla within the microbiota of each BoLA-DRB3.2 variant. Color codes have been used to depict the type of relationships; green for positive (co-occurrence) and red for negative (mutual exclusion) relationships
