Tangnaikang Alleviates Hyperglycemia and Improves Gut Microbiota in Diabetic Mice

Figure 3

Comparison of the gut microbial taxa among different groups. Taxonomic differences were detected among different groups. (a). The cladogram diagram shows the microbial species with significant differences in the vehicle (blue), Acarbose (purple), low-dose (red), medium-dose (blue), and high-dose (green) groups. The species classification at the levels of phylum, class, order, family, and genus is shown from the inside to the outside. The red, blue, and green nodes in the phylogenetic tree represent differential microbial species in the low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose groups, respectively. Yellow nodes represent species with no significant difference. (b). Linear discriminative analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) among high-dose (green), medium-dose (blue), and low-dose (red) groups. Species with significant difference have an LDA score >2.0. The length of the histogram represents the LDA score.
