Table 1.
Signature. LEfSe (Linear discriminant analysis Effect Size) at species level according to climatic zone. Light gray indicates species less present in the arid zone than in the semi-arid one and red indicates a presence less than 50%. Dark gray indicates species more present in arid zone than in the semi-arid one and green indicates a presence more than 200%. LEfSe results using non-parametric factorial Kruskal-Wallis (KW) sum-rank test. Adjusted p-value cutoff = 0.05 and LDA score = 1.0. LEfSe analysis was performed with MicrobiomeAnalyst.
