Phylogenetic relationships between ASVs contributing on average > 0.25% to total sequence across all samples (a). Dots represent single samples and were colour-coded according to their group affiliation. Dot size represents the relative frequency of ASV in samples of apparently healthy and diseased corals. ASV labels represent lowest taxonomic resolution assigned through the Greengene library algorithm. b Comparisons between the relative phyla abundances of microbiomes associated with apparently healthy and diseased coral tissue. Positive and negative values reflect a higher contribution to total number of sequence reads per sample in diseased and healthy coral tissues, respectively. c Per phyla sums of ASVs that show significant differences between apparently healthy and diseased tissue. X-axis represents the sum of relative frequency changes after disease infection. Numbers above error bars indicate the number of ASVs that show significant differences between groups
