Fig. 5: Prokaryotic taxa sensitive to soil compaction.

Taxonomic tree showing the bacterial and archaeal ASVs assigned at the genus level and responding significantly to compaction (PERMANOVA, q < 0.05). The barplots show the z-transformed relative abundances of these ASVs, with the yellow and red bars representing ASVs relatively enriched under the “tracks” and “areal” compaction treatments, respectively, and the green bars representing the ASVs relatively enriched under the “control” treatment.
