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

Fig. 5

Oral iron supplementation shapes the gut microbiota recovery from antibiotic exposure at the genus level. A Heatmap of log2 fold change (FC) of the relative abundances of the significantly different genera between mice before (T0) and after (T7) antibiotic exposure (GAMLSS-BEZI analysis). Each square represents one mouse (N = 18 per group). B-C The effect of iron supplementation on the relative abundance of genera that were significantly affected through the full recovery phase (T14, T21 and T80). D-E The effect of iron supplementation on the relative abundance of genera that remained significantly affected at the last time point (T80). Vertical bars represent the standard error of the mean (SEM) (N = 9 per group)
