Fecal microbiota transplantation from the lower gastrointestinal tract restores intestinal microbiota dysbiosis in DSS-induced colitis mice. A, The Venn diagram analysis of OTUs among OR, UFMT, and LFMT groups. B, Rank-abundance curves reflect higher species richness in LFMT mice (green curve) than in OR (red curve) and UFMT (blue curve) mice. C, Rarefaction curves among the three groups. D, E, Taxa richness (Chao1 index), and species diversity (Shannon index) reflect that the microbial richness and diversity of LFMT mice were higher than OR and UFMT mice. F, Relative abundance of microbiota composition on phylum and species levels. G, Histogram represents the enriched microbiota in UFMT and LFMT groups from phylum level to species level. H, NMDS analysis reflects the similarity in the microbial composition of samples. I, PCoA analysis reflected the differences in sample species diversity among groups. D-E, Data are presented as mean ± S.D. p values were determined by analysis of variance, *p<0.05, **p<0.01
