Figure Lengend Snippet: a Contribution of different sample sources ( n = 11) to gene content of the horse gut microbial gene catalog. Vertical blue bars represent the number of genes present in only one sample or shared between pairs of samples. Horizontal orange bars in the lower panel indicate the total number of genes contained in each sample. b Flower plot showing the number of core genes shared between all samples ( n = 11) and those specific for each individual. c Visualization of the taxonomic assignment of Illumina trimmed paired reads in a Krona plot using the software tool Kaiju. d Lollipop plot showing the gene counts identified by the Kaiju resolved at the phylum level. Dots are colored by kingdom. e Treemap showing the taxonomic ranking of the main taxa in the gene catalog using Kaiju. The size of each box is proportional to the number of genes assigned to each taxon. The placement of boxes is arbitrary concerning boxes within the same taxonomic rank and does not correspond to any form of phylogeny or relatedness.
