1. Relative proportions of taxa and UPGMA hierarchical clustering of the mock communities.
Relative proportions of taxa and UPGMA hierarchical clustering of the mock communities. UPGMA hierarchical clustering was based on the (A) Bray-Curtis dissimilarity matrix and (B) weighted Unifrac distance matrix. Expected taxa (9 bacterial species) are labeled with the corresponding taxonomic level from the DNA sequencing results. Each bar contains the results from each of the three mock community replicates tested using different DNA sequencing methods. The results shown were analyzed following the DADA2 pipeline with the Greengenes database.
