Figure 3

Network-based analyses of gut, water and feed bacterial communities.

The network diagram is color-coded by: sample type (gut: green, water: blue and feed: red); day 07 (circles), day 42 (triangles) and feed which represents a pooled sample both from day 7 and 42 (square); system (gut AS: Active suspension system with two replicates: dark green; gut RAS: Recirculating aquaculture system with two replicates: light green; water AS: Active suspension system with two replicates: dark blue; water RAS: Recirculating aquaculture system with two replicates: light blue). Sample nodes are oversized to be distinguished from OTU nodes. Colour and size of OTU nodes represent assignments of OTUs to sample nodes based on the amount of samples that were shared with (small nodes are shared with less samples compared to larger ones); purple OTU nodes: OTUs present in only one sample; orange OTU nodes: OTUs shared between two samples; yellow OTU nodes: shared between 3 or 4 samples; pink OTU nodes: shared between 5 to 7 samples; red OTU nodes: shared between 8 to 16 samples). Thickness/brightness of edges connecting two nodes is proportional to the relative abundance of the specific OTU in the physical sample to which it connects.
