Fig. 6

The DPCoA and Unifrac distances both exhibit a gradient in their sensitivity to taxon agglomeration. We plot the RV coefficient (vertical axis) between distances computed on the full dataset and distances computed on a dataset glommed to some number of taxa (horizontal axis). We show a set of DPCoA distances (top panel) with different values of r (indicated by color) and a set of Unifrac distances (bottom panel) with different values of α (indicated by color)
