From: Hypersaline sapropels act as hotspots for microbial dark matter
Sapropels’ taxonomic-to-phenotipic cladogram showing the putative metabolic profiles of sapropels’ microbial communities (based on 16 S rRNA gene). The cladogram does not reflect the functional status of the microbial communities, but rather their metabolic potential. The red internal ring is a circular heatmap; the colour intensity is proportional with the number of sequences affiliated with a metabolic profile. The emerald triangles (▴) correspond to the metabolic profiles of Ursu sapropels, while the inverted (▾) green ones correspond to Fara Fund sapropels.
