Fig. 3From: Diverse laboratory colonies of Aedes aegypti harbor the same adult midgut bacterial microbiomeThe dominant bacterial genera found in the midgut are similar among diverse colonies of Ae. aegypti. The abundance of the 12 most abundant genera is shown for each colony representing 16â18 individual midguts from 3 replicate cages dissected 4â6 days after adult emergence. Bacterial genera were assigned to OTUs clustered with a 97% cut-off using the SILVA database (https://www.arb-silva.de)Back to article page
