Sloan neutral model predictions of skin microbiota. a AIC score comparing the ability of the neutral, binomial, and Poisson models in explaining the skin microbiota assembly process. b, c Sloan neutral model prediction of (b) cheek and (c) scalp microbiota grouped by city. OTUs are represented by data point and colored according to whether the taxon fitted above (green), within (purple), or below (orange) the 95% confidence interval (dotted lines). R2 values (measurement of fit to neutral assembly process) and m values (estimated migration rate) are indicated for each prediction. d Proportion of OTUs within each of the main skin-associated microbial genera according to their Sloan neutral model prediction. Bars labeled “bacteria” and “fungi” represent the overall proportion of all taxa within the respective domains
