Strain-level analysis, with PanPhlAn, using the total number of reads from each sequencer. a The highest match for each of 11 mock community species for which ≥ 2 reference strain genomes are available at RefSeq, based on the presence/absence of pangenome gene families. b A comparison of the relatedness of the Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens and Leuconostoc mesenteroides strains detected in kefir samples with each of the reference strain genomes present in the respective c Statistical differences in the proportion of PanPhlAn pangenome gene families detected using each sequencer
