From: Oral iron supplementation after antibiotic exposure induces a deleterious recovery of the gut microbiota

Fig. 3

Antibiotics induce major perturbations in relative abundances and iron shapes the gut microbiota during recovery. Pie charts of phyla relative abundances at (A) T0 (N = 18), (B) T7 (N = 18) and T80 for mice fed (C) iron-sufficient diet (N = 9) and (D) iron excess diet (N = 9). Differences were assessed by Welch t-test; n.s., non-significant, * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001
