  1. In the table, “p_“ represents the phylum level, and “g_“ represents the genus level. “Mean (%)” refers to the percentage of the mean value, “Sd (%)” refers to the percentage of the standard deviation, and “P value” corresponds to the P value from the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Values with P < 0.05 are shown in bold, indicating significant differences. n = 9 biologically independent samples per group.
