TB-E, TB-NE and normal lung tissues (NT) have distinct bacterial diversities. A Venn diagram of the exclusive and shared OTUs. B Average relative abundances of phylum-level taxa showing the distribution of bacterial compositions. C and D Box plot of Chao1 and Shannon index of the three tissue categories. E Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on Bray–Curtis dissimilarity displaying the bacterial variations. Statistical differences are calculated using the analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) algorithm. The dotted circles indicate the 95% confidence intervals. TB-E: Lesions from TB patients excreting bacteria; TB-NE: Lesions from TB patients not excreting bacteria
