a Number of MOTUs obtained at different values of d using SWARM. Total number of MOTUs (dark green) and of MOTUs with two or more sequences (light green) are represented (note different Y-axes). b Density plots (note quadratic scale) showing the distribution of number of differences between different clusters (inter-MOTU, red) and sequences within clusters (intra-MOTU, blue) obtained by SWARM for selected values of the parameter d (1, 9, 13, 14, 20 and 30)
