Figure Lengend Snippet: Taxonomic abundance comparison at genus level from 16S rDNA sequencing. Constrained Correspondence Analysis (CCA) and Adonis test were performed to assess the variance in microbiota profiles at the genus level in lean (A) and obese (B) subjects. Vectors represent quantitative explanatory variables with confidence circles depicted for each country. Corresponding p -values are shown for each analysis and p -value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. x - and y -axis show CCA1 and CCA2 components, respectively. Green, blue, brown and red points indicate individuals from France, United States, Saudi Arabia, and Chile, respectively.
