Study of Jianpi Mixture on Intestinal Microbiota of Diarrhea Irritable Bowel Syndrome Mice

Figure 9

Difference analysis of intestinal microbiota structure of mice in groups A, B, and C: (a) LEfSE tree diagram of group A (n = 5); (b) LEfSE tree diagram of group B (n = 5); (c) LEfSE tree diagram of group C (n = 5). This circle diagram of radiation from inside to outside is a clustering tree, which in turn represents the classification level of phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Each small circle on a different circle layer represents a classification at that level, and the diameter of the small circle is proportional to the relative abundance of the classification. In Figure 9 (a), the red area indicates the group A1 and the green area indicates the IBS-D group (A2, A3, and A4); in Figures 9 (b) and (c), the different red areas in the tree diagram represent the BI and C1 groups, the green represents the B2 and C2 groups, the blue area represents the B3 and C3 groups, and the purple area represents the B4 and C4 groups. The yellow represents the species with no differences between the components. The red node represents the dominant microbiota in the red group, and the green node represents the dominant microbiota in the green group. Each node is identified by a lowercase letter, and a species annotation is made on the right side of the tree.
