(A) Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) of bacterial community composition based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarities of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data in four different salt treatments (0, 2, 7, and 22 mg NaCl g⁻¹). (B) The first ordination axis of the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity-based PCoA against community salt tolerance indicated by the IC₅₀. (C) Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) of bacterial community composition based on Earth Mover Band Awareness Distances (EMBAD) of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data in four different salt treatments (0, 2, 7, and 22 mg NaCl g⁻¹). (D) The first ordination axis of the EMBAD-based PCoA against community salt tolerance indicated by the IC₅₀.
