Extended Data Fig. 3: Divergence-complexity effect at Family level.
From: Metabolic complexity drives divergence in microbial communities
A reproduction of divergence-complexity effect calculation in Fig. 2f except computing divergence at the Family level instead of at the ASV level (one-sided Wald Test on effect (slope) > 0, p-values shown in figure for each day and condition type). Unlike our results at the ASV level, the divergence-complexity effect for our mixed-metabolite conditions at the Family level was only significant for day 33. The lack of significance at other points may be related to their reduced sample size (for days 3, 6, and 9; see Extended Data Table 1), but may in principle reflect additional effects emerging upon taxonomic coarse graining.
