Measured total cobalamin (sum of both water-leachable and non-water-leachable cobalamin) and 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole (DMB) concentrations in 40 soil samples (a), and cobalamin biosynthesis gene summary for 155 soil metagenomes (b). Cobalamin-producing genes in b were grouped as: Group A, corrin ring biosynthesis; Group B, final synthesis and repair; Group C, 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole (DMB) synthesis. The 155 soil metagenomes are independent from the 40 soil samples used for cobalamin measurement. The center line in the box plot represents the median value
