From: Skin microbiome correlates with bioclimate and Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis infection intensity in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest treefrogs

Figure 2

Richness (i.e. #OTUs) of treefrog (N = 819) skin bacterial communities is negatively correlated with (B) Mean Temperature (°C) of the Wettest Quarter (Bio8) and (C) latitude, but positively associated with (D) Precipitation (mm) of the Driest Month (Bio14), and (F) Precipitation (mm) of the Driest Quarter (Bio17) as well as (E) Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) infection intensity (zero values and maximum extreme values were removed from analysis E). (A) Elevation as well as (E) Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) infection intensity (N = 188; zero values were removed from analysis E) did not affect alpha diversity in treefrogs in the Atlantic Forest. Solid and dotted regression lines for significant and non-significant correlations, respectively. Error bar = median. Box = 1. and 3. quartiles. Dots = outliers, minimum and maximum values. Whiskers = 1.5-fold interquartile range.
