(a) Ternary plot of the bacterial ASVs distribution across plant growth stages in the leaf of wheat control plants; (b) Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCoA) using Bray–Curtis dissimilarity metrics of the leaf bacterial communities associated with the control treatment; (c) LEfSe analysis at multiple taxonomic levels comparing the bacterial community structure across PGS in control treatment. Cladogram illustrating the taxonomic groups explaining the most variation among the bacterial communities. Each ring represents a taxonomic level, with phylum (p), class (c), order (o), family (f) and genus (g) emanating from the center to the periphery. Each circle is a taxonomic unit found in the dataset, with circles or nodes shown in colours (other than yellow) indicating where a taxon was significantly more abundant.
