Bacterial groups are enriched between pigs and Ascaris microbiomes. A Differentially abundant bacteria between Ascaris and jejunum. Significantly enriched ASVs stratified by host and parasite microbiomes (infected jejunum and Ascaris from infected individuals). Each point represents log₂ fold enrichment values. Values > 0 represent enrichment of the ASV in the pig jejunum microbiome compared to the Ascaris microbiome from each comparison. Values < 0 reflect enrichment of the taxon in the Ascaris microbiome compared to the pig jejunum microbiome. Taxa in bold indicate ASVs that belong to dominant genera. B Out of the differentially abundant bacteria, specific ASVs are exclusive to Ascaris or host microbiomes. General prevalence either in Ascaris microbiome or pig jejunum microbiome of all significant differentially abundant ASVs in (A). Size of the circles indicates the relative abundance in the respective microbiomes; crosses (X) indicate the absent ASVs in either one or the other microbiome type. Those ASVs belonging to dominant taxa are colored accordingly
