  1. Values are based on SIMPER analysis of square root transformed relative abundance data at the OTU level. Values within brackets indicate the standard deviation of the average gut Bray Curtis similarity within group, as a measure of multivariate within group dispersion. AS & RAS: Active suspension and recirculating aquaculture systems respectively; AS1 & AS2: Replicate active suspension system 1 & 2; Ra & Rb: Replicate recirculating aquaculture system a & b; 7 and 42: Sampling day 7 and 42.
