Exact sequence variants (ESVs) associated with smokers and non-smokers in the tonsillitis cohorts ranked according to linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size. ESVs were identified using the linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) algorithm. Only ESVs with an LDA score of at least 2 in their respective groups are shown. Genus level classification (or lowest rank available) with reference to the SILVA database is provided. Red bars represent ESVs associated with smokers, whereas blue bars represent ESVs associated with non-smokers
