Precise Eimeria quantification with amplicon 18S rRNA gene fragment sequencing. a Relationship between Eimeria DNA measured with qPCR and ASVs from sequenced standard PCR. b Abundance distribution for each individual Eimeria ASV sequenced from standard PCR amplification. The mean for each ASV abundance is depicted as a diamond. dpi: days post-infection. Abundance is expressed as relative abundance after total sum scaling
