Diversity profiles. A Diversity of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal microbiota given by Hill numbers of order 0 to 4 in pneumococcal carriers and noncarriers. B Diversity of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal microbiota given by the Hill numbers of order 0 to 4 of smokers and nonsmokers. C Diversity of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal microbiota given by the Hill numbers of order 0 to 4 of individuals who have regular contact with children and those who do not have. D Average relative abundance of the ten most frequent genera found in the microbiota of the nasopharynx represented by stacked bar plots. The remaining less abundant genera were grouped as a single bar (other). E Abundance of the ten most abundant genera found in the nasopharynx of carriers and noncarriers. F Average relative abundance of the ten most frequent genera found in the microbiota of the oropharynx represented by stacked bar plots. The remaining less abundant genera were grouped as a single bar (other). G Abundance of the ten most abundant genera found in the oropharynx of carriers and noncarriers. P-values determined by the Wilcoxon rank-sum test
