SIV infection is associated with higher microbial diversity and altered microbiome composition and function. Characterization of SIVpos and SIVneg samples (respectively, 62 and 41 from the rectum, 33 and 11 from the feces, 11 and 9 from the penis, and 41 and 10 from the vagina) with respect to a alpha diversity in feces, stratified by SIV status and b community structure for four body sites stratified by SIV positive/negative status. c Differentially abundant genera between SIVpos and SIVneg individuals at all body sites (There were no differentially abundant genera in penile samples). Analysis was adjusted for age, sex, and vervet location. d Functional pathways associated with SIV infection in the predicted metagenome of fecal samples
