Top: Alpha-diversity represented by Shannon-Index and richness in obese and lean ZSF1 rats at 8, 13 and 20 weeks of age. Lines indicate the median. Bottom: Beta-Diversity in lean versus obese ZSF1-rats at baseline (p = 0.200), 13 weeks (p = 0.001) und 20 weeks (p = 0.007). Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) was used to illustrate dissimilarities between samples. Ellipses used to show significant grouping. Diversity parameters were analyzed after rarefaction
