Extended Data Fig. 6: Correlation of ASVs shared between animals and those shared between animals and the environment.
From: Microbiomes of microscopic marine invertebrates do not reveal signatures of phylosymbiosis

The proportion of bacterial ASVs shared between individual invertebrates collected in Quadra Island and all other co-occurring animals in the same sample plotted against: a, the proportion of bacterial ASVs shared between animals and their environment; b, the proportion of shared ASVs between animals that are also shared with the environment. Both coloured and separated according to host phylum. While there is a tendency for co-occurring animals to share more ASVs in samples where more ASVs are also shared with the environment, the ASVs responsible for both overlaps do not increase in number accordingly, and hence are not necessarily the same. n of specimens per phylum as in Fig. 2d.
