From: Large-scale analysis of sheep rumen metagenome profiles captured by reduced representation sequencing reveals individual profiles are influenced by the environment and genetics of the host

Distribution of heritability (A) and repeatability (B) estimates of reference-free tags clustered by genus. Estimates were calculated on the set of samples from sheep fed a grass diet (green), sheep fed a lucerne pellet diet (blue), and all New Zealand samples (orange). Heritability estimates were based on Cohort-adjusted metagenome profiles from the set of tags generated on all samples and assigned taxonomy at the genus level after aligning to the sheep genome, the Hungate1000 Collection and GenBank. The numbers given in the legends are the mean and standard deviation of the estimates across the 1751 genera
