Figure 3

Similarity analysis of the 9 sludge samples. (A) Based on CA cluster analysis, according to Bray Curtis distance (the average linkage); (B) Based on PCoA (Principle co-ordinates analysis). Every dot represent a sample plotted according to their OUT composition and abundance(stress value = 0.12), a positive correlation between the distance of two dot and their similarity. Cluster the 9 samples into 3 groups. Group I contains SX-1-O, SX-2-O, SX-3-O, SY-A, SY-O; Group II contains SX-1-A, SX-3-A; Group III contains QG and XY.
