Fig. 4. Comparisons of relative abundance of representative fecal microbial enterotypes.
Fecal samples from the male (A, B) and female (C, D) rats from control or high-fat diet-fed were collected and subjected to analysis of microbial enterotypes at the phylum level (A, C) and 3 representative human enterotypes (Bacteroides, Prevotella, and Ruminococcus) genera. The statistical significance was calculated by the Mann–Whitney test.
