  1. Abbreviation: SIMPER, similarity of percentages.
  2. Given is the mean % abundance of sequences for bacterial taxa only across the samples each was observed to occupy and average dissimilarity between sample (overall mean=80.7%). Percentage contribution is the mean contribution divided by the mean dissimilarity across samples. The list of taxa is not exhaustive, so cumulative % does not sum to 100%. The taxonomic identity with the highest resolution (for key taxa) determined through phylogenetic association and/or taxonomic assignment* are reported here. Percentage values represent bootstrap or taxonomic assignment* support (%).
