Fig. 3From: Laboratory colonization by Dirofilaria immitis alters the microbiome of female Aedes aegypti mosquitoesRarefaction curves. Rarefaction analysis of biological replicates rarefied at a sequenced depth of 20,000. Curves were allowed to reach a plateau so as to prevent trade-off of rarely represented bacterial OTUs. Dirofilaria immitis-infected mosquitoes are represented by the red curves, while the blue curves represent the uninfected mosquitoesBack to article page
