a Comparison of beta diversity results for the mock bacterial community and the healthy volunteer skin samples sequenced on both Roche 454 and Illumina MiSeq using Procrustes plot comparing the principal co-ordinates of Bray-Curtis distances. b Comparison of beta diversity results for the mock bacterial community and the healthy volunteer skin samples sequenced on both Roche 454 and Illumina MiSeq using Procrustes plot comparing the principal co-ordinates of Unweighted UniFrac distances. Lines connect paired sample sequences on the Roche454 (white tip of line) and Illumina Miseq (red tip of line)
