a, Temporal dynamics of bacterial composition during fermentation in the kefir fermented milk assessed by 16 S amplicon sequencing. The non-isolates represent the sum of all species, which are not in the kefir isolate collection. The fermentation is split into 6 different stages depending on the abundance changes of the major species. The shaded area marks the data range. N = 4, biologically independent samples. b, Fitting of DNA concentration dynamics to sigmoid curve. N = 4, biologically independent samples, error bars = mean values + /- SD. c, DNA extracted from fermentation samples. DNA concentration estimates, measured using Qubit (Supplementary Table 19), were used to determine absolute abundances shown in Fig. 1d. Raw gel images are depicted in Supplementary Fig. 3.
