Figure 6:
KEGG pathways enriched in rhizoplane or rhizosphere soil samples. (a) The relative abundances of pathways were compared between rhizoplane to rhizosphere soil samples from Yangling and Zhangjiakou, respectively. Pathways with a significant difference in reporter score (<1.7, blue, enriched in rhizosphere soil; >1.7, red, enriched in rhizoplane) were retained. +Reporter scores >2.3 or <2.3 are shown in the map. (b) Compartment-specific enrichment of xenobiotics biodegradation pathways in rhizoplane and rhizosphere. The reporter scores of pathways greater than 1.7 or lower than –1.7 were plotted. BS: bulk soil; RP: rhizoplane; RS: rhizosphere; YL: Yangling; ZJK: Zhangjiakou.
