Species-level taxonomic clustering of bacteria. The heatmap shows the hierarchical clustering of sample groups based on the relative abundance of the top ranked 70 bacterial species identified in cow and mouse mastitis (CCMM, CCMF, MCMF, MCMMT) and healthy (HCM, HCF, HMF, HMMT) metagenomes. The relative values in the heatmap (after normalization), depicted by colors, indicate the aggregation degree or content of bacterial species among samples at the phylum and order level. The color bar (light blue to red) displays the row Z-scores (0–40): red color indicates high abundance, light blue color low abundance. The color of the squares on the left indicates the relative abundance of the bacterial species in each group. The distribution and relative abundance of the bacterial species in the study metagenomes are also available in Additional file 2
