Molecular phylogeny of heritable symbionts and microbiota diversity analysis in phlebotominae sand flies and Culex nigripalpus from Colombia
Fig 9
Heatmap based on the microbiota composition at the genus level illustrating common and endemic bacterial community abundances according to insects, the presence of endosymbionts and categorization according to its importance as a vector.
Hierarchical Ward’s linkage clustering based on Pearson’s correlation coefficient of the microbial taxa abundance. Red and blue colors represent positive and negative correlations, respectively. The color scale represents the scaled abundance of each variable, denoted as Z-score, red indicates high abundance, and blue indicating low abundance.
