Microbiota community differences between highly enriched (HE) and moderately enriched (ME) bifidobacteria categorizations within synbiotic mice. A Classification tree distinguishes mice with HE and ME bifidobacteria persistence based on other microbial taxa; B Morisita-Horn distances for synbiotic treated mice from baseline to day following gavage (day 4) grouped as HE (n = 5) and ME (n = 7) bifidobacteria; C microbial community NMDS plot of HE (n = 4) and ME (n = 7) bifidobacteria groups at the final time point, colored by high and low; D log ratio of Bifidobacteriaceae relative to Lachnospiraceae and Ruminococcaceae on the final day of the experiment. Boxplots represent medians and interquartile range (IQR) with whisker end points equal to the maximum and minimum values below or above the median at 1.5 times the IQR. NMDS was generated using β-diversity index weighted UniFrac distance in two dimensions. * p < 0.05, *** p < 0.001
