Temporal and spatial behavior of the lung virome. A Abundance change of viral lung clusters over time, core viral species abundances summed by cluster and 4th root transformed. Sample number: nL = 96. B Linear mixed model of time-associated viruses across lung clusters 1, 2, 4. Data points (circles), linear regression (blue line), and residuals (black line) are depicted. Weeks after surgery are depicted in log scale. Sample number: nL = 90. C Cluster-based exclusion of virus in same BALF sample. 4th root transformed abundances of time-associated organism in same cluster (2 or 4) were summed and ratio of their abundances in the same sample was used to assign exclusion categories 0:1 = 100%, < 1:4 = 75%, < 1:2 = 50%, < 3:4 = 25%, and no exclusion. Increasing sample counts are depicted. Sample number: nL = 56
