Figure 3.
A Venn diagram that illustrates observed overlap of OTUs with ≥97% similarity according to sampling method. Among the five subjects, a total of 113 OTUs were detected. Thirty-six OTUs were detected by all three sampling methods; 5225 sequences of the total 5373 sequences fall within these 36 overlapping OTUs (97.2%). Jabund and θ estimates of OTU community structure and membership along with standard errors (SEs) are reported in the accompanying table.
