Proportions of unique identical rpoB reads shared between bite mark and teeth samples included in comparative analyses.

Bold numbers indicate the highest proportion of identical reads in each column. Bite mark samples (B) and teeth samples (T) from the same participant have corresponding identifying numbers. Bite mark sample 11 contained less than 10 unique reads therefore was omitted from comparative analyses of all loci. The number of 16S rRNA reads in bite mark sample 2 was less than 10 therefore was omitted from comparative analyses of all loci.
