Principal components analysis (PCA) of Euclidean distances between the gut microbiomes of adult Seychelles warblers that survived (blue) versus those that had died (yellow) by the next breeding season. Each point represents a sample taken from a different individual. Euclidean distances are based on CLR-transformed abundances of ASVs. Principal components one and two explained 7.51% and 4.01% of the variation in GM community structure, respectively. N = 148 samples/individuals were included in the analysis (127 individuals survived, 21 individuals died)
