The relationship between microbial strains in the colon. Samples that were able to provide WSS scores for each species were selected to compare the WSS scores between (A) cecum vs. transverse colon; (B) cecum vs. sigmoid colon; and (C) transverse colon vs. sigmoid colon from IgA data sets. The summarized WSS scores were grouped into different color boxes (see the figure key). Each column in the table matches the label shown in Table S1. WSS results from analyzed IgG data sets are shown in Fig. S5, and WSS scores for all identified species are provided in Table S4. CO designates the WSS cut-off values for relatedness (Table S5). The white boxes indicate the microbial strains that we were unable to determine relatedness due to the any sample in pairs not satisfying the criteria of WSS analysis (minimum coverage > 30 % and average depth > 3.5)
