Taxonomic abundance of top 40 archaeal and viral genera in clinical mastitis (CM) and healthy (H) milk through MG-RAST (MR). (a) The relative abundance of 39 most abundant archaeal genera are sorted by descending order, with the remaining genera keeping into the ‘Other genera’. Archaeal genera are found in 20 samples, and absent in one clinical sample (Ctg3C2). (b) Taxonomic distribution of 35 viral genera detected in all of the 21 samples of clinical (CM) and healthy (H) milk metagenomes. The most abundant viral genera are sorted by descending order of the relative abundance. Each stacked bar plot represents the abundance of archaea and viruses in each sample of the corresponding category, where the last two bar plots depict overall relative abundance of archaeal and viral genera in both metagenome groups. Notable differences between the archaeal and viral populations are those where the taxon is abundant in clinical samples and effectively undetected in the healthy milk. Sample names: suffix ends with C refers to clinical (CM) and that ends with H refers to healthy (H) milk samples.
