Fig. 4: Functional redundancies across MAGs enable diverse energy acquisition and biogeochemical pathways.

From: Genomic and metabolic adaptations of biofilms to ecological windows of opportunity in glacier-fed streams

Fig. 4

a The alluvial plot represents the metabolic pathways identified within all prokaryotic MAGs, with the respective taxonomic classification and category of nutrients. b Total number of MAGs encoding genes for and involved in the Carbon cycle (Methods) are depicted in the flow gram created using a modified script from METABOLIC109. Each sub-pathway is indicated as a step with the corresponding number of genomes encoding the respective genes. c Phylum and order-level distributions of chemolithotrophic (hydrogen, nitrogen and sulfur) pathways with the respective gene copies per pathway are depicted in the heatmap. d Flow diagram indicating the MAGs encoding for pathways in the nitrogen cycle (Methods). Each sub-pathway is indicated as a step with the corresponding number of genomes encoding the respective genes.
