A Percent of raw read distribution in combined RAC/face samples of Yanomami (n = 30) and western expeditioner (n = 10; ANOVA of LME, two-sided, p-value: ***<0.001; not shown >0.1; p = 0.00015, 2.48E-05, 0.7253, 5.47E-10, respectively). Boxplots: median, 1st- 3rd quartiles, whiskers min/max, outliers (1.5 × IQR). B Summary of GTDB-based classification of bacterial MAGs reconstructed from Yanomami RAC/face (n = 30) samples. C Principal Coordinates Analysis (Bray-Curtis) of Yanomami (n = 94) bacterial microbiota across body sites and age groups. D Bacterial diversity (Shannon Index) of combined sebaceous samples (RAC/face/back/scalp; n = 53) across age groups. ANOVA of LME, two-sided, p = 0.0957, (Tukey multiple comparisons, two-sided: *p-value < 0.05, p = 0.023). Boxplots: median, 1st- 3rd quartiles, whiskers min/max, outliers (1.5 × IQR). E Relative abundance of Cutibacterium in combined sebaceous samples (RAC/face/back/scalp) in Yanomami children (n = 14 samples) vs adults (n = 26 samples; ANOVA of LME, two-sided: p-value = 0.054). Boxplots: median, 1st- 3rd quartiles, whiskers min/max, outliers (1.5 × IQR).
