Fig. 5: The distinct composition of aquarium and reef microbial biofilms at different larval settlement levels is reflected across rare prokaryotic families.
From: Linking differences in microbial network structure with changes in coral larval settlement
Log transformed relative abundance of rare taxa (<0.1% relative abundance of 16 S rRNA gene sequencing reads) is shown at the family level (right) across biofilms samples within high (blue), medium (purple), and low-settlement (green) categories (top) for aquarium (A; N = 35) and reef (B; N = 35) datasets at all sampling time points. Corresponding modules for each family where it was present at the highest abundance are shown on the left. Families identified as containing potential inducers and inhibitors are labelled with a red asterisk. The module legend and biofilm samples are ordered based on their level of settlement (from highest to lowest).
