Fig. 5: Changes in assembly patterns of bacterial and fungal communities during leaf senescence.
From: Assembly and maintenance of phyllosphere microbial diversity during rubber tree leaf senescence
A MST: modified stochasticity ratio (MST < 50%: community assembly is more deterministic; MST > 50%: more stochastic) for bacterial (left panel) and fungal (right panel) communities. B Fit of the neutral community model of whole bacterial and fungal community for rubber tress. The solid black lines indicate the best fit to the model, and the dashed black lines represent 95% confidence intervals. Black solid circles show ASVs that matched model predictions. Light pink solid circles represent none core ASVs, blue, green, and dark green solid circles are core ASVs. M indicates the metacommunity size multiplied by immigration, while R2 indicates the model fit. Significant level: *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001.
