Fig. 6 — A scatter plot of urbanization versus nestedness rank of communities inhabiting each of the 20 Linaria vulgaris populations located across an urbanization gradient in the vicinity of Leuven, Belgium. Urbanization was measured as an impervious surface percentage within a 500 m radius from each sampled population. The nestedness rank was assigned according to ‘binmatnest’ algorithm as implemented in the R package ‘bipartite’. Urbanization and nestedness rank of microbial communities showed significant correlation (Spearman-ρ = 0.49, p = 0.02)
