Box Plot from Scientific Research

α diversity is shown in all sample types, as Shannon index and Pielou’s evenness. Overall significance, assessed with Kruskal–Wallis tests, is indicated in red in the top right corner of each figure (comparison between infant, children, and chicken gut microbiomes). Subsequent pairwise Wilcoxon rank sum tests with a Bonferroni adjusted p value were completed between groups, and significance is indicated with black brackets and asterisks. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001
