Multidimensional scaling plots for microbiome feature data types. In multidimensional scaling (MDS) plots, each point represents one microbiome sample for two donors (Donors A and B) and three conditions (before dysbiosis, dysbiosis, and after dysbiosis). Four microbiome data features are considered: taxonomic population structures (Taxa), community enzyme function profiles (Enzyme Profile), community total metabolome (Metabolism), and community secondary metabolome (2ndary Metabolism). Points that cluster nearer to one another in an MDS plot are more similar to one another
