Description:
Whether or not the ASV passed the threshold of accounting for > 1% relative abundance in a sample. There were some ASVs which did not occur in > 1% relative abundance in any samples and were removed from the dataset altogether to avoid potentially spurious results. "Yes" refers to the ASVs which passed this relative abundance threshold and were included in subsequent data analysis and figures in Sterling et al and "no" refers to ASVs which never occurred at a threshold of >1% relative abundance in any of the samples across the whole dataset.
