Bacterial community profiling based on amplicon sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA genes. Community profiles were obtained for three slag deposit sites (RH1-RH3), sediment of a pond collecting the slag drainage water of rainfall events (RHP) and nearby undisturbed forest soil (Ref). (A) Phylum-level analysis is shown for the ten most abundant bacterial groups. Panels linked to the four phyla showing highest abundances are emphasized in gray. Orange bars = RH1-3, light-orange bars = RHP, gray bars = Ref. (B) Taxonomically more resolved community profiles for the four most abundant phyla. ^*Significant enrichment (p ≤ 0.05) based on one-way ANOVA.
