Bar Plot from Scientific Research

Bacterial taxa (at the amplicon sequence variant or SV) were selected by the random forest classification (RFC) and ranked according to their importance in the classification for infants born to pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 compared to HC. Bar colors indicate the comparison group (i.e., SARS-CoV-2 or HC); and each bar indicates the importance by which the increase in an SV predicts a particular comparison group. The Boruta algorithm was used to select variables for RFC. We also used the Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanation (LIME) to estimate a threshold of the abundance of the SV selected with Boruta that predicts a particular comparison group. * P adj < 0.050, ** P adj < 0.010
