From: Characteristics of upper and lower respiratory tract microbiota after lung transplantation

Community structure and diversity of respiratory microbiota from different sites in lung transplant recipients. BALF: bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. (A) Principal coordinates analysis of respiratory samples from different sites based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarity matrix. PERMANOVA was performed to assess the association between the microbiota and sample types. (B) α-diversity of microbial communities in respiratory specimens from different sites. Two-sided Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to compare the Shannon diversity between different groups. **: P ≤ 0.01; *:0.01 < P ≤ 0.05; ns: P > 0.05. (C) Composition of respiratory microbiota from different sites
