n, number of 16S rRNA gene sequences analyzed.
Eighty percent identity was estimated as the phylum-level distance (D = 0.20), and 97% identity was estimated as the species-level distance (D = 0.03).
Richness is based on observed unique OTUs.
Nonparametric statistical predictions of the total richness of different OTUs were based on the distribution of abundant (>10) and rare (≤10) OTUs.
Nonparametric statistical predictions of the total richness of OTUs were based on the distribution of singletons and doubletons.
A higher number represents more diversity.
