Fig. 7: Distribution of N-AMG-containing viral populations across the ETSP OMZ samples.
From: Potential virus-mediated nitrogen cycling in oxygen-depleted oceanic waters
Bubble plots representing the relative abundances, in terms of normalized coverage, of viral populations containing the focA and nirA genes (panel A, in green), norB and nirK genes (panel B, in red), amoC genes (panel B, in yellow) and the glnK genes (panel B, in purple). The x axis of each grid represents the stations (7, 8, 14, 16, 17, and 18), and the y axis represents the sampling depths (from top to bottom: surface chlorophyll maximum (scm), oxycline (oxy), upper OMZ (uomz) and core of the OMZ (omz)). Station 7 had a second core OMZ sample (omz2) and station 18 was only sampled in the upper OMZ. Gray boxes represent the OMZ: light gray for dysoxic waters below the oxycline, and dark gray for suboxic and anoxic waters in the upper and core of the OMZ.
