Effect of sequencing depth on the reliability of taxonomic profiles.a The distribution of taxonomic features over different mean relative abundances. b The cumulative proportion of taxonomic features at different thresholds of mean relative abundance. c, d Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) (c) and Spearman correlation coefficient (SCC) (d) of the taxonomic profiles at the given sequencing depth and 80 M fragments. The x-axis (the mean relative abundance threshold) indicates the upper boundary of the mean relative abundance
