Figure 6.

Commonness and abundance plot of all oligotypes that were part of the mixed habitat sample grouping analysis (Table 2). The occurrence (presence/absence) of each of the 99 oligotypes across all 179 samples is plotted along the x-axis while its mean relative abundance across all samples is plotted on the y-axis. Samples that are both common and abundant are found in the top right, while those that are common, but rare are in the bottom right. Both rare and uncommon are found in the bottom left. The top 17 most abundant oligotypes from Table 3 are also labeled.
