Comparison of five reindeer individuals’ parasitic nematode communities detected using morphological and molecular methods. Morphological surveys included pathological examinations of the abomasum and duodenum in addition to flotation of eggs from faeces. Molecular surveys used amplicon sequencing of faeces samples either directly or after enrichment treatments by flotation or sedimentation. Point type indicates the lowest taxonomic level a method successfully identified the taxon at. A solid line under the point indicates it was recovered only from the forward reads. A solid line over the point indicates it was recovered only from the combined forward and reverse reads
