PERMANOVA analyses identified nominally significant effects of Age within the ONT dataset at the phylum (R2 = 0.204, p = 0.038), family (R2 = 0.154, p = 0.020), and genus (R2 = 0.139, p = 0.029) levels, whereas no nominally significant effects were detected in the Illumina dataset (Supplementary Table S2).
