Fig. 2

A Taxonomic profile of the representative MAGs reconstructed from the samples included in this analysis (10 controls, 5 for 10 different GC factors and 10 random combinations of 8 GC factors) collapsed to the phylum level; (B) Shannon diversity index, per treatment; (C) MAG genome size (corrected by completeness), per treatment; (D) Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCoA) on the relative abundance of the reference MAGs. We indicate 8-factor samples not including the salinity treatment (124, 127, 128). In (B, C), thick points represent the median values, and bars indicate standard deviation intervals. Asterisks represent different significance levels obtained after a Two-sided Wilcoxon test comparing control samples with the samples to which GC treatments were applied; * indicate p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001 and **** ≤ 0.0001. 10 Control samples, 5 samples for each individual GC treatment, and 10 8-factor samples were considered in the statistical analyses. Exact p-values are provided in Supplementary Tables 3 and 4. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
