Abundance of the commonest bacterial genera. Scatterplots of CSS log2 normalized counts of the commonest bacterial genera and the number of ASVs observed in plumage samples. aDeinococcus (adjusted R2 = 0.30, P = 0.0006) and Hymenobacter (adjusted R2 = 0.30, P = 0.0001) in dorsal plumage samples. b Comparable scatterplots for ventral plumage: Deinococcus (adjusted R2 = 0.52, P = 0.000001) and Hymenobacter (adjusted R2 = 0.59, P = 0.0000001). c Scatterplots of the second (Clostridium sensu stricto 1; adjusted R2 = 0.10, P = 0.043), fourth (Bacillus; adjusted R2 = 0.10, P = 0.041), and fifth most abundant genus (Mobilicoccus; adjusted R2 = 0.35, P = 0.0001) in dorsal plumage samples. d Comparable scatterplots for ventral plumage: Clostridium sensu stricto 1 (adjusted R2 = 0.16, P = 0.012), Mobilicoccus (adjusted R2 = 0.33, P = 0.0003), and Clostridium sensu stricto 7 (adjusted R2 = 0.13, P = 0.024). The x-axis represents the number of ASVs (log10) observed in individual samples. R2 and two-tailed P-values were derived from simple linear regression
