- Condition The experimental condition / phenotype studied according to the Experimental Factor Ontology
- Diet measurement Diet measurement,diet measurement
- Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies
- High + Middle feeding group - Nomascus concolor
- Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies
- Low feeding group - Nomascus concolor
- Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
- These refers to gibbon species living in suboptimal habitats with lower and more variable fruit availability, relying more on leaves. They consumed low proportion of leaf per month.

Description: Linear Discriminant Analysis Effect Size (LEfSe) analyses revealed significant contributions to the differences in abundance across various bacteria taxonomic levels, from phylum to genus, among different gibbon species with varying proportions of leaf consumption.
