Fig. 7

Environmental variables structure prairie dog fecal microbiome. The upper panel shows scatter plots of alpha diversity (Shannon diversity index) where the black line shows smoothed confidence intervals derived from linear regression (A) cumulative precipitation, (B) average maximum temperature, and (C) average minimum temperature. The lower panel demonstrates scatter plots of beta diversity on the first principal component (based on unweighted UniFrac distance) according to (D) cumulative precipitation, (E) elevation, (F) average maximum temperature, and (G) average minimum temperature
