Alpha diversity of identified microbiomes at phylum and genus levels between DNA and RNA libraries. Alpha diversity of microorganisms identified by KRAKEN2_R (A–D), MEGAN6_R (E–H), and MEGAN6_A (I–L) using two different diversity indexes (i.e., Shannon and Simpson). The statistical test carried out was the Wilcoxon rank-sum test (nonparametric). * indicates a p-value less than 0.05.
