The MTD microbial community co-occurrence patterns. (A) Co-occurrence network of different types MTD microbial communities (ρ > 0.65, p < 0.001). (B) Full sample co-occurrence network and distribution of bioturbation responding significant ASVs (bsASV) under specific bioturbation, insensitive ASVs were colored in gray. The major network modules containing bsASVs were shaded. Abbreviations connected with underscores such as DD_CD, DD_PD, CD_PD indicated the joint bsASVs of different MTD. (C) Degree of co-occurrence and abundance of bsASVs. Relative abundance (as counts per million, CPM) of all ASVs from the MTD microbiome co-occurrence networks is plotted as a function of their degree of co-occurrence. Side panels recapitulate the distributions of co-occurrence degrees and abundance for the bsASVs compared to the density of all.
