Spatial patterns in host-associated and free-living bacterial communities across six temperate estuaries.

Seawater communities demonstrated an overall trend of decreasing alpha diversity with decreasing latitude (Figure 3B; Supplementary Table S8 ).

While seawater bacterial communities showed this predicted pattern of higher diversity at lower latitudes, fish hindgut communities demonstrated a weak trend in the opposite direction, and no patterns were detected in sediment communities.
