Fig 1.
Comparison of different eukaryotic components extracted in 13 samples from HIV-infected patients using 4 methods of DNA extraction.
Fig 2.
The distribution of the major eukaryotic MOTUs detected in the fecal samples of HIV-infected patients and healthy subjects using cloning and sequencing methods.
The heatmap shows read counts for the 33 MOTUs identified as contributing most to the variance (up to 86% across all samples) as determined by Similarity Percentage (SIMPER) analysis. The dendrogram shows the clustering of samples based on Bray-Curtis similarity distance.
Fig 3.
Abundance and distribution of the fungal OTUs obtained from the amplification of the ITS1 region in the fecal samples of HIV-infected patients and healthy subjects.
Fig 4.
Abundance and distribution of the fungal OTUs obtained from the amplification of the ITS2 region in fecal samples of HIV-infected patients and healthy subjects.
Fig 5.
The distribution of the major fungal OTUs obtained from the amplification of the ITS1 region in the fecal samples of HIV-infected patients and healthy subjects.
The heatmap shows read counts for the 15 OTUs identified as contributing most to the variance (up to 86% across all samples) as determined by SIMPER analysis. The dendrogram shows the clustering of samples based on Bray-Curtis similarity distance.
Fig 6.
The distribution of the major fungal OTUs recovered from the amplification of the ITS2 region in the fecal samples of HIV-infected patients and healthy subjects.
The heatmap shows read counts for the 13 OTUs identified as contributing most to the variance (up to 86% across all samples) as determined by SIMPER analysis. The dendrogram shows the clustering of samples based on Bray-Curtis similarity distance.
