Figure 8

Seasonal trends for the chemoautotrophic SUP05 lineage in the Bedford Basin from 2014–2017. The SUP05 reads are conglomerated at a genus level (a) to highlight the differences between the euphotic and aphotic zones, while (b) highlights the different SUP05 ecotypes from non-conglomerated reads. Winter mixing occurs during Nov-Feb shown by orange arrows on (a). Generalized additive mode smoothings are shown in red (a), note: analysis of CLR data reveals how ASVs behave relative to the per-sample average. Sampling depths are presented by different symbols on (b), and ecotypes are shown in different colours. The red arrow (b) highlights the temporal niche for ecotype SUP05_ASV5. Neighbor-Joining tree with a Tamura-Nei genetic distance model for the five SUP05 ecotypes (c).
