UPGMA analysis based on unifrac distance showing the cluster of microbiome communities in Aedes samples. a Based on the genus. b Based on the OTUs. The blue standing string indicates that the bacterial structures in the midgut of both Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus are similar and convergent but distinct in relation to that in entire bodies of Aedes mosquitoes. The orange and green standing strings indicate that similar bacterial structures are harbored in the entire bodies of both male and female mosquitoes of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus, respectively. AEMW: entire body of male Ae. aegypti. AEFW: entire body of female Ae. aegypti. AEFM: midgut of female Ae. aegypti. ALMW: entire body of male Ae. albopictus. ALFW: entire body of female Ae. albopictus. ALFM: midgut of female Ae. albopictus. AE: Ae. aegypti. AL: Ae. albopictus
