Figure 4. Bacterial community composition of coral mucus in the in situ field experiment.

Figure 4

(A) nMDS cluster analysis of coral mucus bacterial community profiles did not show any distinct pattern. (B) Bacterial community composition (order level) of samples in high water flow (un-enclosed) and low water flow (enclosed) on Days 1, 5 and 10 during the summer and winter. 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.
