Figure 3: Genes related to alkane oxidation in microcosms of differing biodiversity.

From: Metagenomic and functional analyses of the consequences of reduction of bacterial diversity on soil functions and bioremediation in diesel-contaminated microcosms

Figure 3

Gene abundance and taxonomic affiliation at the phylum level were determined using the KEGG Orthology and M5NR databases, respectively, from MG-RAST. Taxa with abundance <5% are presented as “Others.” C, control; D, diesel-spiked soil; DR, diesel-spiked soil and red clay; DP, diesel-spiked soil and processed red clay. (a) phylum (b) genus.
