The alpha diversity measures of ARG richness, evenness, and Shannon diversity did not significantly differ by family. However, differing levels of variance were observed among families, particularly when comparing families with one control sample vs. many. Each column in the dotplot represents a single family with one case sample (green circle) and one or more control samples (orange circles). P-values were calculated using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test but none were significant.
