Proportions of fungal OTUs or cultures assigned to genera and species. The proportions of fungal OTUs from the Taylor, Tedersoo and ONT dataset or from the sequenced cultures that were assigned to A genera and B species. All sequences were matched to the same version of UNITE for taxonomic assignments. The total number of OTUs and number of fungal OTUs are indicated below the bars for each metabarcoding method, while the number of sequenced fungal cultures is indicated for the culturing dataset
