Fig. 6. Effect of each diet on relative abundances of bacteria in the microbiota at the genus level. Genera with significant differences in even one of the groups are shown. (A) Relative abundances of bacterial taxa accounting for more than 1%. (B) Relative abundances of bacterial taxa accounting for less than 1%. T0, baseline value; T2, after 2 weeks of consumption. Values are expressed as the mean±SEM. B-diet group, whole grains and vegetable-enriched diet; probiotics group, probiotics capsule containing Lactobacillus plantarum PMO 08; synbiotics group, whole grains and vegetable-enriched diet combined with L. plantarum PMO 08. *P<0.05 and **P<0.01 compared with values at baseline (T0), calculated by paired t-tests.
