From: Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) as a novel model to study the relationship between the avian microbiome and microbial endocrinology-based host-microbe interactions

Ensemble networks of associations for (a) quail belonging to the high-stress phenotype and (b) quail belonging to the low-stress phenotype, encompassing cecal microbial relative abundances and chemical concentrations in tissues including the cecal, colon, jejunum, lung, liver, and plasma. Associations are derived from the intersection of several correlation techniques (Conet, Pearson, and Spearman). Gray oval-shaped nodes represent the chemical concentrations from various tissues while rectangular-shaped nodes representing microbial taxa are colored according to their lineage. Green edges reflect the co-occurrence of connected nodes, while red edges represent mutually exclusive nodes
