Deep Sequencing of the Oral Microbiome Reveals Signatures of Periodontal Disease (original) (raw)
Figure 1
Relative abundance of genera in the samples estimated from 16S rDNA sequencing. * - genus significantly enriched in cases; ∧- genus significantly enriched in controls (p< = 0.05, Metastats [ 30]).
Only genera with >1% abundance in at least one sample were included. Colors reflect relative abundance from low (red) to high (white). Sample H31 (control) clusters together with the diseased samples, consistent with clinical observations of early symptoms of periodontal disease.
