The proportion of read pairs with each bacterial operational taxonomic unit (OTU) is illustrated with Krona plots for AML samples (a), STAD samples (b), OV tumor samples (c), and OV normal samples (d). While the STAD samples seem to be almost entirely Pseudomonas spp., the AML samples show some Pseudomonas spp., Acinetobacter spp., and Ralstonia spp. The OV samples show evidence of Mycobacterium spp., as well as Enterobacteriaceae. There is an increased abundance of Mycobacterium spp. in the 154 OV tumor samples and Rhodobacteraceae spp. in the 156 OV normal control samples
