Alpha diversity expressed as Shannon’s H index for bacteria, protists and viruses in the hemolymph and sweater in controlled and natural conditions. a-c) Hatchery, d-f) natural non-infectious and g-i) infectious environment. Bacterial and protistan diversity estimates are based on OTUs, viral on the recovered contigs. The Shannon’s H indices of bacterial (a, d, g), protist (b, e, h) and viral (c, f, i) communities are presented on the same row. Error bars represent standard error of the mean
