Figure 1

Double dendogram of major genera in Venous Leg Ulcers. This figure is a double dendogram describing the major genera detected among the 40 VLU samples. The heat map indicates the relative percentage of the given genera within each sample ID with a color legend and scale provided. The distance of the samples based upon weighted pair linkage and Manhattan distance methods with no scaling is provided at the top of the figure along with a distance score. The bacterial genera and the associated clustering are provided along the Y-axis and their associated distance scores indicated. The most determinative genera for clustering, based upon this analysis, are Staphylococcus, Bacteroides, Serratia, and Corynebacterium spp.
