Comparison of alpha diversity indexes between the swim bladder resident microbiota (SB) and the distal gut digesta microbiota (DIG) in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Diversity in the swim bladder bacteria and the distal gut digesta bacteria community was measured using Chao-1 (A), phylogeny-based metrics (B), simpson index (C) and shannon index (D). A student-test was used to determine significance differences in Chao-1, phylogeny-based metrics and Shannon index using a critical value of α = 0.05. A Mann-Whitney test was used to determine significance differences in Simpson index using a critical value of α = 0.05. No significant differences were detected for any alpha diversity indexes.
