a Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCoA) of faecal microbial profiles of lambs experimentally infected with Teladorsagia circumcincta following adjuvant (Adj/Tc+_17) or vaccine (Vac/Tc+_17) administration and uninfected controls (Tc−_17) over the course of the 2017 trial. Microbial profiles were clustered by experimental group (colour) and infection status (symbol); for lambs in the Adj/Tc+_17 and Vac/Tc+_17 groups, uninfected samples correspond to those collected at 0 days post infection (dpi). b Selected microbial taxa displaying significantly higher abundance in faecal samples from experimentally infected lambs (i.e. Adj/Tc+_17 and/or Vac/Tc+_17) compared to uninfected controls. Results based on Linear Discriminant Analysis Effect Size (LEfSe); LDA score (log10) > 3
