Fig. 2: Analysis of similarity of community models derived from different reconstruction approaches.

The Jaccard similarity was employed to assess the similarity between each reconstruction, considering: (a) the sets of reactions, (b) metabolites, (c) dead-end metabolites, and (d) genes. Pairwise comparisons were performed among the models reconstructed from the same MAG using different approaches. This comparison was performed on the same models whose characteristics were compared in Fig. 1. The coral-associated bacterial models are represented in red, while the seawater bacterial models are depicted in light blue.
