Fig. 1: Species richness and relative abundance of soil fungal functional groups in response to precipitation seasonality in a lowland tropical rain forest in Amazonia.

From: Seasonal dependence of deterministic versus stochastic processes influencing soil fungal community composition in a lowland Amazonian rain forest

Fig. 1

Fuchsia, rainy season; turquoise, transition into dry season; yellow, dry season. Richness, number of Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs) in each taxonomic group; total number for all samples per functional group in upper left corner of panels; total number per season inside plotted boxes; relative abundance, the proportion of reads. The complete pool assigned to a functional group consisted of 992 ASVs. Significant differences as determined by paired t-tests or Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, corrected for multiple comparisons using the false discovery rate method are indicated by grey arrows; * p < 0.05. Boxplots: centre line, median; empty square, mean value; box limits, 25th and 75th percentiles; whiskers, 1.5 times interquartile range; empty circles, outliers. The y-axis values for richness are number of ASVs and percent for relative abundance.
