Figure 4

Lipid signal of different lipid categories in different locations/months. (A) Principal Component Analysis (PCA) indicating the scores of the first two principal components of the lipidome in the sponge individuals between the two different locations. (B) Boxplots depicting the average signal [au/mg] extracted from all the lipids of each lipid category in the two different sampling locations/months. Fluctuations in signal [au/mg] were calculated separately for saturated (SFA), mono-unsaturated (MFA), and poly-unsaturated (PUFA) lipids within each lipid category. Abbreviations: free fatty acids (FFA), phosphatidylcholines (PC), lyso-phosphatidylcholines (LPC), triacylglycerides (TGs), phosphatidylglycerols (PG), lyso-phosphatidylglycerols (LPG), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE), lyso-phosphatidylethanolamines (LPE), saturated (SFA), mono-unsaturated (MFA), poly-unsaturated (PUFA).
