Figure 5. Heat map of cluster relations of kit-based replicates and dominant OTU-based taxa of microbiota associated with L. vannamei N5, Z2, M1, and P1 samples, extracted with Ba or St kits.

BaN5, BaZ2, BaM1, and BaP1 indicate microbial DNA extracted with the Ba kit from larval samples of N5, Z2, M1, and P1, respectively; numbers 1, 2, and 3 indicate technical replicates of each kit. This is similar for the St kit.
