UniFrac: Comparing Microbial Communities Presented by: Donovan Parks

Overview Motivating example Quick look at Bray-Curtis Index (BCI) UniFrac: distance measure, significance test, community tree, sequence jackknifing Contrast BCI and UniFrac

Why compare microbial communities?

Bray-Curtis Index (BCI): Distance Measure Measures the difference in OTU diversity between microbial communities.

BCI: Pros and Cons Pros: Cons: Simple (both conceptually and experimentally) Considers both richness and evenness # OTU in a Community Relative Abundance Cons: All clusters considered equally different

UniFrac: Distance Measure Measures the evolutionary distance between microbial communities

UniFrac: Significance Test Do two communities differ significantly?

UniFrac: Community Distance Matrix

UniFrac: Sequence Jackknifing How does the number and evenness of sequences from each community affect the results?

Weighted UniFrac What about the relative abundance of sequences (i.e., evenness)?

UniFrac: A Practical Look

Final Remarks: BCI vs. UniFrac They are different, equally valid measures! BCI: taxon-based method which considers richness and evenness UniFrac: phylogenetic-based method which considers evolutionary divergence Which to prefer depends on the questions you are trying to answer

Final Remarks: Many Ways to Compare Many richness and evenness measures (e.g., Jaccard, Sörensen) Other phylogenetic distance measures (e.g., TreeClimber) Many interesting and meaningful ways to compare microbial communities: Richness and evenness Evolutionary divergence Functional diversity
