Overview of the between-group variation in the gut composition and diversity and the potentially influencing ecological and intrinsic factors. A Stacked barplot and heatmap of the average relative abundances of bacterial phyla and class or phyla and families, respectively, and average alpha diversity per group and field season. B Stacked barplot of the average relative abundances and average richness of land plant families per group and field season. C ASVs associated with the different groups in 2017. The graph does not contain data on 2016 since group M only joined the study population in 2017, and there were no prior data available. The association network was calculated with the indicspecies package in R and visualised in Cytoscape with an edge-weighted spring embedded layout. Branch lengths indicate the point biserial correlation coefficient. Each circle or other shape indicates a bacterial ASV associated (p < 0.05) with the group it is connected to. Coloured circles indicate phyla except for the 5 most abundant families, which are indicated by different shapes. Sizes of the circles and other shapes indicate the average relative abundance of each ASV among all samples
