1. OTU and beta-diversity novelty.
OTU and beta-diversity novelty. (A) The AGP data placed into the context of extant microbial diversity at a global scale. (B) A phylogenetic tree showing the diversity spanned by the AGP and the HMP in the context of Greengenes and the EMP. (C and D) sOTU novelty over increasing numbers of samples in the AGP (C); the AGP appears to have begun to reach saturation and is contrasted with the data from the work of Yatsunenko et al. (6) (D), which, unlike the AGP, had extremely deep sequencing per sample. (E) The minimum observed UniFrac distance between samples over increasing numbers of samples for the AGP and the HMP; the inset is from 0 to 500 samples. (F) An AGP “trading card” of an sOTU of interest (shown in full in Fig. S2).
