Microbiome Analysis of Amplicon Sequencing

In a coral associated microbiome dataset, where we have two different coral species (with one incipient speciation) and two different reproductive strategies, we want to address the following scientific questions:

  1. Is the microbiome of these cold-water corals species-specific?
  2. Is the microbiome related to the reproductive strategy?
  3. Or is the microbiome shaped by both factors?
