Alpha diversity scores across depth. ASVs were filtered (A) at phylum level and (B) at species level. For each specified taxonomic level, only the ASVs that got a taxonomic classification were used. The alpha diversity scores used were the number of ASVs (same as ASV richness), the Shannon index and the Simpson index. Orange was used for full-length and blue for V4-V516S rRNA gene sequencing. Columns in the facet grid were used to distinguish taxonomy databases (GTDB and Silva). Tendency lines were added to help reading the figure. Regression equations and statistical support are available in Supplementary Table S5
