Figure 5. Changes in alpha diversity across the latitudinal gradient of range expansion differed between bacterial and fungal communities.

Figure 5

While A bacterial alpha diversity did not significantly change (ns in all cases), B fungal diversity increased in the rhizosphere of unrelated range expanders (red), to some extent native plant (purple), and no pattern was seen in related range expanders (green).
