Eimeria infection and intensity predict poor body condition in mice. a Eimeria falciformis infection status, b Eimeria ferrisi abundance and c Eimeria falciformis abundance association with body mass index. Grey points represent the relationship (raw data) between body mass index and Eimeria spp. infection status or abundance. The mean predicted effect from a linear mixed model and associated 95% confidence intervals are represented as black points. Lines with respective coloured shades represent the predicted mean effect corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Abundance is the Eimeria spp. ASV relative abundance after total sum scaling within each amplicon, and summed across amplicons for each sample
