Changes in the relative abundances (rows of heatmap) of the OTUs assigned to the ecological categories tolerant and sensitive across the three growth phases (columns of heatmap) (A) and their phylogenetic distribution (B). In A, color gradients of heatmap represent the relative abundances of individual by column with warm colors (toward red) indicating high abundance and cold colors (toward blue) indicating low abundance within the sample. Column labels are batch IDs and the grouping of growth phases, and row labels the OTU IDs. Tolerant and sensitive OTUs were denoted in blue and green colors, respectively. In B, the innermost circle indicates the taxonomy (phylum/class) of the OTUs. The outer circles indicate the ecological group of OTUs in each treatment group (BPA, TCS, MI, MII from inside to outside, respectively).
