Differentially abundant amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) between piscivorous and arthropodophagous bats displayed at the bacterial genus level. Only ASVs with a significance value of p < 0.01 are shown. Positive values indicate genera that were enriched in piscivorous bats, while negative values show those enriched in arthropodophagous bats. Colours of the circles indicate phyla. Each circle represents a single ASV, thus multiple circles within a genus indicate multiple ASV that were enriched. The five highlighted bacterial genera are the ones that contributed the most to the ensemble predictive models of piscivorous bats
