FIGURE 7.

MCIA projection plot. (A) The first two axes of MCIA represents metabolomics, microbial community and agronomic traits of the maize root samples. Different shapes (diamond: Agronomic traits; triangle: Metagenomics dataset; square: Metabolomics dataset) represent the different variables connected by lines, the length of these lines is proportional to the divergence between the datasets. Lines for each sample are joined at a common point, at which the covariance derived from the MCIA analysis is maximal. Color shows the different thesis (black: Control; red: AMF‐based product; green: B. megaterium PGPR formulation). (B) Pseudo‐eigenvalue space representing the percentage of variance explained by the first twoof the MCIA components. (C) Pseudo‐eigenvalues space of all datasets for maize roots, showing overall co‐structure between three datasets and shows which dataset contributes more to the total variance
