Unconstrained ordination of lung explant OTUs at 3% OTU cutoff by anatomic location.
The bacterial communities of human lung explants were binned at a 3% OTU cutoff to produce high-resolution data. The data were ordinated using PCoA based on (A) Bray-Curtis distance, (B) Jaccard distance, (C) PCA and (D) CA. Individual samples were colored based on the anatomic location within the lung from which the sample was obtained, regardless of subject.
