Between-class analysis plots for taxon-based distances.
A) MDS plot based on PCA for 150 taxa with the largest share. Principal component analysis was performed using package “ade4” with data scaling and centering. B) MDS plot based on the UniFRAC distance. Calculation of UniFRAC distance was performed using QIIME package. First and second principal components describe 40.69% and 32.82% of total variance respectively.
