Fig. 9

Bar plot demonstrating differences in the relative abundance of microbial taxa of interest within BRD negative and BRD positive animals as collected with DG swabs, nasal swabs, or proctology swabs. Error bars display the standard error of the mean. Significant differences among relative abundances within each phylum and swab type are noted with an asterisk (Kruskal–Wallis analysis of variance by ranks, P < 0.05). Note the difference in the relative abundance scale for 4A and 4B
