Extended Data Fig. 2

The first row shows NMDS plots of Bacteria, Metazoa and Fungi associated with the leaves of three tree species - European beech, Norway spruce, and Lombardy poplar - where each tree species is represented by a distinct icon. Rows two through four illustrate the studied leaf-associated communities for each tree species separately. Rows five to seven show NMDS plots of Bacteria, Algae/Protozoa and Metazoa associated with limnic zebra mussels, as well as marine bladderwrack and blue mussel. Taxonomic groups are represented by colors. Icons refer to sampled species. Shapes denote the sampling location.
