Correlation between known microbial metabolites linked to proliferation and microbiota composition. Heatmap visualizing Pearson’s correlation coefficients relating relative metabolite concentrations with relative bacterial abundance at (a) the class and (b) family level. Red text denotes bacterial taxa associated with term (n = 4) microbiota, green text denotes bacterial taxa associated with pre-term (n = 5) microbiota
