Figure 2. Bacterial community composition of coral mucus in the laboratory experiment.
(A) nMDS cluster analysis of coral mucus bacterial community profiles showed two distinct groups – mA and mB. (B) Bacterial community composition (order level) of Group mA and mB. OTUs with a mean relative abundance of less than 1% are combined in the ‘Others’ category. Figures show mean with 75% quantile, and S.D. (whiskers). *P < 0.05.
