Beta diversity (unweighted UniFrac distances) of soil microbiota across three environmental conditions—wilderness in Madagascar (WM; green), captivity in Madagascar (CM; pink), and captivity in the U.S. (CU.S.; orange)—that encompass eight setting (see Table 1 for names of abbreviated research settings). a, b Principal coordinate plots, showing axes 1 and 2, or 1 and 3, respectively, of soil microbial communities colored by setting and encircled by normal data ellipses reflecting environmental condition. c Mean beta diversity distance scores within an environmental conditions (single color) and between two environmental conditions (two colors). The center of the box reflects the mean and the error bars represent ± the standard error of the mean (SEM). Kruskal–Wallis test with Benjamini–Hochberg correction; * p < 0.05, **** p < 0.0001
