  1. 1Length cutoff at minimum 218 nt for V1V2 reads and 235 nt for V6 reads.
  2. 2Total number of sequences after processing the dataset through the PyroNoise program developed by Quince et al., 2009 [34].
  3. 3The number of reads per dataset after removal of sequences that could be from the same source as those in the contamination control dataset.
  4. 4OTUs: Operational Taxonomic Units at 3% or 6% nucleotide difference.
  5. 5Number of phyla and genera are based on taxonomic classification by MEGAN V3.4 [36, 37], with the total number of phyla and genera detected in parenthesis.
  6. 6Chao1 is an estimator of the minimum richness and is based on the number of rare OTUs (singletons and doublets) within a sample.
  7. 7The Shannon index combines estimates of richness (total number of OTUs) and evenness (relative abundance).
  8. 8The Shannon index after normalization of the number of sequences (as described in Methods).
