Fig. 1: Effect of drought and future climate conditions on the composition of total and growing bacterial and archaeal communities.

From: Microbial growth under drought is confined to distinct taxa and modified by potential future climate conditions

Fig. 1

Principal component analysis (PCA) of total (a) and growing (b) bacterial and archaeal communities (n = 4 replicates) on centered log-ratio transformed amplicon sequence variant (ASV) absolute abundances. Absolute abundances were calculated by multiplying ASV-specific amplicon sequencing reads with 16 S rRNA gene copies inferred by digital droplet PCR. Absolute abundances were agglomerated over the density fractions of a sample gradient. Statistics from two-way permutation-based multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) testing a full two factorial design (Drought Yes, Drought No, Climate Ambient, Climate Future) are provided as inset panels. Source data are provided with this paper.
