Alpha diversity of infected and uninfected Galba truncatula snail samples, presented at the genus level. a Comparison of Chao1 richness, revealing no significant differences in alpha diversity between infected and uninfected snails (P-value = 0.79; Mann–Whitney U statistic = 78.5). b Comparison of observed richness, revealing no significant differences in alpha diversity between infected and uninfected snails (P-value = 0.79; Mann–Whitney U statistic = 78.5). c Comparison of Shannon’s diversity index, revealing no significant differences in alpha diversity between infected and uninfected snails (P-value = 0.89; Mann–Whitney U statistic = 87). d Comparison of Simpson’s diversity index, revealing no significant differences in alpha diversity between infected and uninfected snails (P-value = 0.87; Mann–Whitney U statistic = 94). e Comparison of Fisher diversity index, revealing no significant differences in alpha diversity between infected and uninfected snails (P-value = 0.80; Mann–Whitney U statistic = 78.5)
