Bovine intrauterine swab microbiome α diversity. Genus-level distributions for A Chao1, B Simpson, and C Shannon indices, comparing clinical groups (CT = 32, MET = 33, and PUS = 31). For microbiome α diversity data, only Shannon data were normally distributed (Shapiro–Wilk p value = 0.073). Horizontal black lines indicate significant pairwise comparisons of clinical groups had significantly different mean Chao1 and Simpson values based on Wilcoxon Sum Rank Test or significantly different mean Shannon values based on Tukey–Kramer HSD p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.001 (**), and p < 0.0001 (***); p < 0.05 was considered a significant difference
