Fig. 3From: Maternal gut microbes shape the early-life assembly of gut microbiota in passerine chicks via nestsMicrobial community structures across finch and environmental samples. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination on Bray-Curtis distances among sample types was plotted based on OTU abundances in (a) chick, (b) adult, and environmental (Env.: nest and feed) samples. cH, cSF, and cZF: ZF chick gut microbiota from hand-, society finch-, and zebra finch-reared groupsBack to article page
