Archaeal communities associated with the AISICS 1 and 2 mini-colonizers according the depth (i.e., position within the colonizer) and type of substratum for each colonization module. (A) Jackknife environment cluster tree (made using the weighted UniFrac metric, based 16S rRNA gene sequences determined by neighbor-joining tree) showing the phylogenetic relationships among the archaeal lineages detected in each AISICS 1 and 2 mini-colonizers according the depth and substrata. The jackknife statistical analysis was done with one hundred replicates; the jackknife value was tagged near their corresponding nodes (values higher 50%). The scale bar corresponds, in the Unifrac unit, to the distance between the different habitats. (B) Proportions of archaeal groups within the clone libraries obtained from each AISICS 1 and 2 mini-colonizers.
