Fungal and bacteria alpha diversity. a Observed OTUs and Shannon diversity index values of HMP samples with both 16S rRNA gene and ITS2 sequencing data compared. Only visit 1 samples are shown for statistical purposes. Visit 2 and visit 3 comparisons showed similar results. For statistical analysis, only samples with both ITS2 and 16S rRNA gene sequencing data were used. ***P < 0.0001 for both observed OTUs and Shannon diversity index (Mann-Whitney test). b Associations between fungal (ITS2) and bacterial (16S) alpha diversity (observed OTUs and Shannon diversity index values) for a given sample. Shaded gray region represents 95% confidence intervals. Linear regression analysis: P = 0.693 for observed OTUs and P = 0.929 for Shannon diversity. Only samples with ITS2 and 16S rRNA gene sequencing data are plotted and analyzed
