Alpha-diversity indices in gut microbiomes of extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) carriers (ESBL+) and non-carriers (ESBL-), based on species. Whiskers in the boxplot represent the range of minimum and maximum alpha diversity values within a population, excluding outliers. Monte-Carlo permutation t-test: * p value < 0.05; ** p value < 0.01; and *** p value < 0.001. Boxplots denote top quartile, median, and bottom quartile. (ESBL-E) carriers had significantly lower microbial richness compared with non-carriers, using Chao1 and unique observed species (p value < 0,001 and p value < 0,01, respectively)
