Fig. 1

Two-dimensional non-parametric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination plots of predicted bacterial KEGG pathways (KEGG orthology (KO) level 3) and functions within the KEGG pathway ‘carbohydrate metabolism’ in cecal and colonic samples of control (CON) and transglycosylated starch (TGS)-fed pigs (n = 8 per diet and gut site). The NMDS plots were generated using Bray-Curtis distance metric between dietary starches. Each dot represents an individual samples; the circles indicate the SD. a KO level 3 pathways in cecal and colonic samples (stress = 0.1103); and b ‘carbohydrate metabolism’-related functions in cecal and colonic samples (stress = 0.0998)
