Fig. 3

The gut microbiome alpha diversity of 7-day-old great tit nestlings across the four treatment groups visualized with two diversity metrics: A Shannon Diversity Index and B Chao1 Richness. The black dots represent each observation within a treatment group. The whiskers represent 95% confidence intervals. Treatment groups are control (C), unmanipulated control (COU), enlarged (E), and reduced (R). N = 88 samples divided into treatment groups as follows: C = 23, COU = 21, E = 20, R = 24
