*
Only the taxa with a relative abundance greater than 1% at the lowest taxonomic rank were shown.
**
c, Class; o, Order; f, Family; g, Genus.
#
Found only or significantly enriched in the CAP in both monocultures.
†
For those taxa, only the lowest classifiable taxa were shown because their higher taxa had similar relative abundance as the taxa shown.
