Tea (Camellia sinensis) biological processes in association with microbial composition. (a) Linkages between the gene ontology (GO) biological processes and the microbial taxa. The relationships between plant candidate genes and microbial operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were built by mGWAS. The GO biological processes were annotated to the candidate genes and were then linked to microbial OTUs. Dots represented the microbial OTUs and were coloured by their phylum taxonomy. The triangular arrows represented the GO biological processes for the candidate genes. The size of shapes represented their degrees in the network. (b, c) Enrichment analysis of GO biological processes in association with root (b) and rhizosphere (c) microbial composition. The GO terms were ranked by the –log10 of the P values and the top 15 terms were shown.
