Factors shaping the gut microbiome of five species of lizards from different habitats
Sequence and statistical analysis All analyses were performed using the R Software v.4.1.1 (R Core Team, 2020). Raw FASTQ files were denoised using the DADA2 pipeline (Callahan et al., 2016). After an assessment of read quality plots, the parameters for trimming and filtering were set as: trimLeft = 20, truncLen = c(220, 200), maxN = 0, maxEE = c(2, 2), truncQ = 2. The SILVA 138 database (Pruesse et al., 2007; Quast et al., 2013) was chosen for taxonomic assignment.
