Salivary microbial composition. Relative abundance of phyla (A, B) and the ten most frequent genera (C, D) in the analyzed southern African populations (A, C), and in a comparative panel of populations from Africa and Europe (B, D). Frequencies for the total population in this study are averages across the 52 individuals. The comparative panel includes data for “Khoisan” foragers from southern Africa also obtained through an Exome capture approach [23]; Batwa Rainforest Hunter-Gatherers (“Pygmies”), Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Sierra Leone (SL) [12]; Italy [59]; Germany [16]. Note: * Data from partial 16S rRNA sequences; # Data from whole-genome sequencing
