Small intestinal-specific microbes in donors that successfully colonized the SI of WIMA mice. Bacterial features that were either absent (a, b, c) or less abundant in the donor feces than in the donor whole intestine (d, e, f) only colonizing the SI of WIMA mice, were referred to as “small intestine-specific microbes” during WIMT. Jejunal and ileal samples of mice were pooled into small-intestinal samples. Cecal, colonic, and fecal samples of mice were pooled into large-intestinal samples. DSI: donor small-intestine; DLI: donor large-intestine; DWI: donor whole-intestine; DF: donor feces; SI: small intestine; LI: large intestine; FMA mice: fecal microbiota-associated mice; WIMA mice: whole-intestinal microbiota-associated mice
