Figure 5
An overview of the nitrogen metabolism pathways. (A) Shows the nitrogen metabolism pathway abundances in the phyla. (B) Shows the nitrogen metabolism pathways abundance in each sample. Since only 44% of the reads mapped back to the UF99 sample, not much information can be inferred from the data belonging to this sample. Nitrate reduction, the most abundant nitrogen metabolism reaction, can couple with methane oxidation and facilitate the usage of methane as an energy source.
