From: Maternal microbiota communicates with the fetus through microbiota-derived extracellular vesicles
Amniotic fluid extracellular vesicles (AM EVs) and maternal fecal extracellular vesicles (FE EVs) show similarities in their bacterial compositions. Taxa bar plots at the phylum and genus levels based on the sample type (AM = amniotic fluid, AM EVs = amniotic fluid-derived extracellular vesicles, FE = maternal feces, FE EVs = maternal feces-derived extracellular vesicles). At the phylum level, the 10 most frequent phyla are colored in, and the rest are collapsed to form the “other” category, whereas at the genus level, the 20 most frequent genera are colored in and the rest collapsed to an “other” category (A). Relative abundances of all phyla in each sample (B)
