Temporal variation in the beta diversity of the bacterial (A, 16S rRNA gene) and microeukaryotic communities (C, 16S rRNA chloroplast sequences; E, 18S rRNA gene) between the Cléron and Parcey sampling stations and the spatial variation in the beta diversity in the bacterial (B, 16S rRNA gene) and microeukaryotic communities (D, 16S rRNA chloroplast sequences; F, 18S rRNA gene) in July and August. Histograms represent total beta diversity (βsor), turnover (βsim) = black, and nestedness (βsne) = gray. Error bars represent the standard deviation. Only statistically significant differences are noted: *<0.05, **<0.01, ***<0.001. Abbreviations: Aug, August; Sept, September; Cl, Cléron; Ch, Chamblay; Be, Belmont; Pa, Parcey.
