  1. UC unclassified, T tumor tissue, TA tumor-adjacent tissue, FC fold change, RI risk index
  2. a The candidate differential taxa were selected according to the following two conditions: 1) pass the ANCOM tests conducted in patients from Zhangzhou City (50 pairs) or the other regions (70 pairs), or the pooled population (120 pairs) (Fig. 4G); 2) the grand means of relative abundance were exceeded 0.1%
  3. b Mean relative abundance were presented
  4. c Fold change (FC) = mean relative abundance in tumor/ mean relative abundance in tumor-adjacent tissue
  5. d The differential abundant taxa between tumor and tumor-adjacent tissues were selected by the ANCOM2 algorithm under detected cut-off at 0.7, and were adjusted for sex, age, risk index, TNM, season, tumor location and regions. The normalized ANCOM’s W statistics were calculated by divided the W over the number of total taxa which were identified as none-structural zero
  6. e The ANCOM2 algorithm was applied for association detection. The detected cut-off at 0.7 was adopt for all analyses. The variables included in ANCOM2 comparisons were in line with those included in differential abundant taxa detection. TRUE or FALSE indicated that the relative abundance of candidate taxa could be or not be influenced by specific factors, respectively
