(a) Principal component analysis of the caecal microbiota based on weighted Unifrac distance (PCA plot), (b) Principal co-ordinates analysis (PCoA) plot based on unweighted UniFrac distance. NC non-infected and untreated negative control, PC ST-infected positive control without probiotics addition, EF E. faecium-treated group without ST infection, PEF both E. faecium-treated and ST-infected group.
