Figure 7.
Proportional abundance of Streptococcus spp. and Lactobacillus spp. for pSS Subject 3 (samples in Figure 5). Paired comparisons of assignments by QIIME (Q, left columns) with those by HOMINGS (H, right columns) for each tooth sample (tooth number, C = caries lesion, L = lingual surface). All species with abundance ≥0.005 (0.5%) in any sample are shown. For species that lack a species-level HOMINGS probe, the corresponding genus-level probe is shown. HOMINGS Streptococcus Genus Probe 4 (hatched blue block in the HOMINGS columns) covers the species indicated by dark/light blue blocks in the QIIME columns.
