Fig. 3From: Characterization of the bacterial microbiome of Swedish ticks through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of whole ticks and of individual tick organsPrincipal coordinate analysis of 16S rRNA OTU data from whole ticks, showing the first three axes (left: axis 1 vs. axis 2, right: axis 1 vs. axis 3). A degree of clustering by tick species is evident, likely due to the presence and abundance of endosymbiont species, but no effect of feeding host (cat vs. dog)Back to article page
