Fig. 1: Summary of samples, fungal taxonomic assignment, and fungal contributions to eukaryotic peptidases and CAZymes across the Atlantic and Southern transects.
From: Organic matter degradation by oceanic fungi differs between polar and non-polar waters
Sampling sites during oceanographic research cruises in the non-polar (NP, the Atlantic Ocean) and polar (P, the Southern Ocean) Oceans (A). The detailed coordinates of sampling sites can be found in Supplementary Data 1. Percentage distribution of fungal genes and transcripts in eukaryotes (B). Percentage contribution of fungal peptidases to eukaryotic peptidase genes and transcripts (C) and the percentage of secretory fungal peptidases (D). Percentage contribution of fungal CAZymes to eukaryotic CAZymes genes and transcripts (E) and the percentage of secretory fungal CAZymes (F). Taxonomic description of the fungal community of total genes and transcripts in the small (0.2–3 µm, SF) and large ( > 3 µm, LF) size fractions between non-polar and polar oceans (G). The relative abundance of total genes and transcripts of fungal taxonomy is shown at the phylum level. Box shows median and interquartile range (IQR); whiskers show 1.5 × IQR of the lower and upper quartiles or range; outliers extend to the data range. Statistical significance was assessed using two-sided t-tests. NS., not significant, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, **p < 0.001 and exact p-value available in the Source data for Fig. 1. For metagenomic analyses, a total of 42 genomic DNA samples were used: NP_SF (n = 18), NP_LF (n = 9), P_SF (n = 7), and P_LF (n = 8). For metatranscriptomic analyses, 53 RNA samples were analyzed: NP_SF (n = 18), NP_LF (n = 16), P_SF (n = 9), and P_LF (n = 10). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
