FIG 5.

Relative abundances in the wood mouse Apodemus sylvaticus (n = 16). We compared oral microbial population analyses in the formerly wild wood mouse Apodemus sylvaticus, sampled from two sources (sets 1 and 2), by laboratory culture (red) and Illumina MiSeq 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing (green) amplifying the V1-V2 region of the 16S rRNA gene. The amplicon sequencing data were analyzed using DADA2 v1.8 against a custom-made taxonomy reference data set from this database. The top 10 most relatively abundant taxa identified after normalization of counts are listed.
