Assignment of protein-coding genes in the metagenomic libraries to the three top-level domains. Taxonomic assignment is based on BLASTp analysis (top hit >30 % identity). The abundance of a gene in a library was estimated using the length and read depth of the gene in the respective assembly (read depth of 1 for unassembled reads). Termite host abbreviations: Nc Nasutitermes corniger, Mp Microcerotermes parvus, Co Cornitermes sp., Th Termes hospes, Nt Neocapritermes taracua, Cu Cubitermes ugandensis
