Apparently healthy corals from the same species differed in microbial beta-diversity and taxa by zones. Principal component analysis (PCA) with a Euclidean distance of microbial beta-diversity in apparently healthy (A) Stephanocoenia intersepta, (B) Diploria labyrinthiformis, and (C) Dichocoenia stokesii. Each shape represents a different zone and shapes are colored by reef name. Differentially abundant taxa among zones are shown in apparently healthy (D) S. intersepta, (E) D. labyrinthiformis, and (F) D. stokesii. The data are plotted by average percent relative abundances, colored bars represent different reefs, and each reef is grouped within its respective zone.
