Comparison of bacterial genus richness (a) and Shannon H (b) based on 16S rRNA gene amplicon and shotgun derived genus profiles based on MEGAN highlighting the differences between variable regions, amplification methods, and metagenomic classifier, as well as between the different host organisms. Colors show significance of amplification methods (a, c) or pairwise comparisons of methods (b, d) based on pairwise t tests with Hommel P value adjustment (a, b), and approximate Wilcoxon test for the comparison between environmental categories (c, d). Mean values are shown in gray symbols in plots a and b. Sample sizes are indicated below the samples
