FIG 4.
Top 20 identity ESVs used for discriminating bacterial (a) and fungal (b) communities in winter and summer (detected by random forest model). The assigned taxonomy of each taxon is displayed at the class level. The bubbles on the left show the relative abundances of those ESVs in winter and summer; the middle bar plots show the importance value of each ESV estimated by random forest model; the right heat maps show the Spearman correlations between the relative abundances of identity ESVs and environmental variables. SM, soil moisture; DOC, dissolved organic carbon; DON, dissolved organic nitrogen; AP, available phosphorus; AK, available potassium; TN, total nitrogen; TP, total phosphorus; TK, total potassium; Tem, average monthly temperature; Pre, average monthly precipitation; *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01.
