Heatmap of oropharyngeal and tracheobronchial samples. Relative abundances of bacterial communities of the subjects are shown. The left main column are oropharyngeal samples, the middle tracheobronchial and the right shows the relative dissimilarity between the two corresponding samples. Each subcolumn for oropharyngeal (oro) and tracheobronchial (tbs) samples represents family-level taxonomic assignment of the sample’s 16S rRNA gene sequences. The color indicates proportional abundance of the sequences assigned to each bacterial family within the sample. The rows represent individual time points of sampling for the subjects. IO and IT represent the initial oropharyngeal and tracheobronchial samples, respectively. Missing samples are indicated with grey fill
