We assessed the within-individual diversity ( i.e., alpha diversity), and found similar observed ASVs diversity between TB, and NTM-LD patients, and marginally significant greater expected richness of ASVs in TB-patients ( Fig 2A ) (Wilcoxon rank sum test, corrected p values: p = 0,14; p = 0.07, for Shannon, and Chao1, respectively).
