From: Functional feeds marginally alter immune expression and microbiota of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) gut, gill, and skin mucosa though evidence of tissue-specific signatures and host–microbe coadaptation remain

taken from the same set of samples. Longer lines between a sample gene expression eigenvalue (points) and its concurrent microbiota eigenvalue (arrows) indicates greater discordance between datasets for that sample. Inset violin plots display the distribution of Procrustes residuals by tissue for each plot. Significant correlations (p < 0.001, 999 permutations) were detected in all comparisons

Multivariate Procrustes analysis comparing microbiota composition to host immune gene expression profiles across mucosal tissues of Atlantic salmon. Principal co-ordinates analysis (PCoA) sample ordinations of abundance-weighted (A, C) and unweighted (B, D) microbiota phylogenetic composition (UniFrac) (arrows) were mapped to sample ordinations based on host mucosal-innate (A, B) or systemic-adaptive immune (C, D) gene expression profiles (points)
