From: Average genome size estimation improves comparative metagenomics and sheds light on the functional ecology of the human microbiome

Figure 5

Average genome size varies systematically in human microbiome data. (A) Distribution of estimated AGS for 736 samples from the Human Microbiome Project. (B) Distribution of estimated AGS for 725 stool samples obtained from subjects originating from five different countries. (C) Estimated relative abundance of Bacteroides for the same samples shown in (B). (D) Country-specific correlations between AGS and Bacteroides relative abundance for stool samples.
