Comparison of infant, children, and chicken gut microbiomes and household soil/dust microbiomes. a The microbial community composition of infant, child, and chicken guts, as well as household soil/dust samples are shown as relative abundance at the phyla level of taxonomy; b α diversity is shown in all sample types, as Shannon index and Pielou’s evenness. Overall significance, assessed with Kruskal–Wallis tests, is indicated in red in the top right corner of each figure (comparison between infant, children, and chicken gut microbiomes). Subsequent pairwise Wilcoxon rank sum tests with a Bonferroni adjusted p value were completed between groups, and significance is indicated with black brackets and asterisks. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
