Fig 3.
Multidimensional scaling analysis of bacterial community composition (T-RFLP profiles) for first-draw and postflushing samples from PCF. (A) Each symbol pair represents paired first-draw and postflushing samples from the same location (n = 15). The green circles represent a similarity level of 50% as determined by cluster analysis. (B) Green symbols represent first-draw samples and blue symbols postflushing samples.
