Virulence factor clustering analysis highlights Bacteroides populations varied by dietary consumption. a At the genus level, Bacteroides did not differ by diet (p=0.79). Bacteroides uniformis (b) and Bacteroides vulgatus (c) populations were elevated in Western diet fed NHPs. Furthermore, virulence factor measurements from the shotgun metagenomics sequencing highlighted increased Bacteroides fragilis (d and e) and Bacteroides vulgaris (f) in Western diet-consuming NHPs. n=14-15. *p<0.05 using two group t test for unequal variance with Satterthwaite adjustment. Error bars on box plots show the min to max distribution
