The median abundance of USiCGs across HMP samples is negatively correlated with the average genome size both (A) across different body sites (R = -0.78, P <0.05) and (B) across stool samples (R = -0.82, P <10 -15 ). See Methods for more details on average genome size estimation. In (A), each cross represents the median and the median absolute deviation across all samples from each body site. In (B), each point represents a single stool sample. Regression lines are illustrated in black.
