Microbial gene richness in recently HIV-1-infected and HIV-negative subjects using shotgun metagenomics. a The leftmost density plot shows a bimodal distribution of all samples according to their observed gene richness value, which enables their classification into low (LGC) and high gene count (HGC). The rightmost density plot shows that HGCs are enriched in NEG, whereas RHI predominate in LGCs. b Longitudinal evolution of microbial gene richness in RHI (in red) and NEG (in green). Each box represents an individual with its longitudinal follow-up samples (timepoints 1, 4, and 9). The dark gray-colored area represents the LGC zone, whereas light gray-colored area represents the HGC zone
