Extended Data Fig. 6. Comparison of two sets of extraction controls, extracted from the stool of a child aged 6–14 months (Sample A) and 31–61 months (Sample B).

Extended Data Fig. 6

Within each set of duplicates, we observed a similar relative abundance of bacterial families and genera that comprised at least 1% of bacterial reads among all fecal metagenomes sequenced for this study. We observed some discordance in the genera that were identified within each extraction pair (3 discordant genera versus 1552 concordant genera among extraction duplicates for Sample A; 85 discordant genera versus 1063 concordant genera among extraction duplicates for Sample B); however, all discordant genera were of exceptionally low abundance (<0.007%).
