FIG 2 — Impact of clay minerals on the in vitro growth of native Hawai’i environmental NTM isolates. (A) Distribution of clay mineral mean decrease in accuracy across 1,000 iterations of shuffling. The importance of gibbsite is less than the average of the remaining features (0.0302 ± 0.0117 versus 0.0377 ± 0.0141). However, the importance of gibbsite is greater than 1:1 clay (0.0302 ± 0.0117 versus 0.0172 ± 0.0041). (B) In vitro growth of M. abscessus in the presence of synthetic gibbsite, kaolin, and halloysite. (C) In vitro growth of M. chimaera in the presence of synthetic gibbsite, kaolin, or halloysite. (D) In vitro growth of M. abscessus in the presence of Hawai’i soil. (E) In vitro growth of M. chimaera in the presence of Hawai’i soil. ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001.
