The overall bacterial community structure and diversity of palm oil mill effluents (POME) from Côte d’Ivoire. (A) PCoA using Bray–Curtis dissimilarity based on the genus-level ASV shows significant differences between samples based on palm oil processing areas (q = 0.014, F = 2.48, PERMANOVA) and the type of processing (q = 0.009, F = 2.49, PERMANOVA). (B) The boxplot shows the existence of similar microbial diversity (Chao richness and Shannon diversity) in the samples according to the area and the type of palm oil processing (B). The significance in the difference was calculated by Kruskal–Wallis test. Samples were collected in four distinct localities namely Aboisso (AB), Dabore (DA), Sikensi (SI) and Zouan Houien (ZO) by considering the two type of processing notably industrial (IND) and artisanal (TRA).
