Fig. 4From: Differences in caecal microbiota composition and Salmonella carriage between experimentally infected inbred lines of chickensAlpha- and beta-diversity between lines, experiments, sexes, and between high and low carriers from line 61. Using the Shannon index, alpha diversity is not significantly different between lines, experiments, sexes, and between high and low carriers from line 61. Using the Whittaker index, beta diversity is significantly different between experiments (P < 0.0001) and between high and low carriers from line 61 (P < 0.01), but not between lines and sexesBack to article page
