Occurrence and abundance of OTUs in blowflies and houseflies shows both shared and specific microbiomes. Circular visualization of the distribution of 33 bacterial species identified by all three bioinformatics methods. Thickness of the ribbon refers to number of reads of each bacterial species assigned to a fly host by dbAssign. The outer ring summarizes the total number of reads assigned to each bacterial species analysed (values in grey) whereas the relative abundance of reads present in the fly hosts is represented in the innermost ring by orange (housefly) and blue (blowfly) bars. Part of the microbiome is shared by both fly species (environment-acquired), and part is species specific (host-selected). See Table S7 for information about disease-association of 33 bacterial taxa identified by all methods. Data was parsed with Circos table viewer⁷².
