Microbial diversity (A observed OTUs, B inverse Simpson index) in faecal samples of A. suum-infected and non-infected control pigs. Shown are boxplots of original values (left) with boxes extending from the 25th to the 75th percentile, a line at the median, whiskers extending to 1.5 the interquartile range and dots indicating outliers; and GLMM-derived estimates with shaded areas indicating 95% confidence intervals (right). Note the different y-axis limits. The GLMMs indicated significantly higher inverse Simpson indices in the trickle-infection than the control group (P = 0.024) as well as a significant reduction in inverse Simpson indices over time in the single-infection group (P < 0.001)
