Appendix B. A table showing the Jaccard index for different distance cut offs, corresponding to different taxonomic levels.

Table B1. The Jaccard index for different distance cut offs, α, in the aggregated bacterial community for each host. Ao corresponds to A. oroides, Cr to C. reniformis, Da to D. avara, and Bp to bacterioplankton. 0 % represent the individual bands from the DGGE analysis.
