Beta-diversity of lumen bacterial communities between different microbiota input groups within the (a) jejunum, (b) ileum, and (c) cecum for both T1 and T2 and weeks 1, 3, and 6. Ellipses were generated around points to aid in visualizing group differences assuming a multivariate T-distribution with a 95% confidence interval. Population level PERMANOVA statistics (F.models and q-values) were also assessed between microbiota input groups within the same trial and between trials within the same input group for the (d) jejunum, (e) ileum, and (f) cecum
