Fig. 2

Relative abundance of bacterial and archaeal (a) phyla and (b) genera in the baboon vaginal microbiota by sample (n = 52). In panel a, each bar represents one sample; colors depict the proportion of reads assigned to a particular phylum in each sample. Only phyla with ≥1% mean relative abundance are shown. Phyla present at <1% are grouped into the category “Low abundance Bacteria”. Panel b shows a heatmap of the log10-transformed relative abundance of bacterial genera. Only genera with ≥1% mean relative abundance are shown. Each column represents one sample. Genera along the y axis were ordered based on hierarchical clustering by Euclidian distance. For both panels a and b, samples are ordered based on female reproductive state and ovarian cycle phase (Fig. 1): PPA, postpartum amenorrhea; A, anestrus; S, swelling; O, periovulation; D, deturgescence; P, pregnant; and MC, miscarrying. Matching lower case letters above bars and columns denote samples from the same individual
