Alterations of individual genera due to intestinal protozoa infections.

A total of 31 genera from the four major phyla of the gut microbiota were either found to have significantly increased or decreased abundance due to protozoan infections (linear regression, P.adj< 0.05). The Campylobacter genus was found at increased abundance due to any of the protozoan infections. The table shows coefficients (Beta) and Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted P values (P.adj) for each association with P.adj<0.05. The associations were evaluated for genera and the higher taxonomic levels are listed to support evaluation of affected phylogenetic branches.
