Fig. 2From: Microbial and molecular differences according to the location of head and neck cancersLinear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) analyses and distribution of the microbiome by subtype. LEfSe analysis of microbiome composition between oral and non-oral-associated cancers was performed on a bacterial DNA and b bacterial RNA, respectively. Bacteria species enriched in oral cancer had a positive linear discriminant analysis (LDA) score, while bacteria species enriched in non-oral cancer had a negative score. Microbiomes with higher levels of distribution in oral cancer were c Fusobacterium, d Leptotrichia, e Selenomonas, and f Treponema. Microbiomes with higher levels of distribution in non-oral cancer were f Clostridium and g PseudoalteromonasBack to article page
