Non-metric Multidimensional Scaling fitting with the incubation conditions (periods and temperatures), and glucose treatment (treated and control) showing the clustering of the samples from each station separately; (A) samples of Kuroshio Current; (B) samples of North Pacific Sub-polar Gyre, SPG (Surface = surface water, Chlo. Max. = Chlorophyll maximum water); and (C) samples of North Pacific Sub-tropical Gyre, STG (Surface = surface water, Chlo. Max. = Chlorophyll maximum water) in the western North Pacific Ocean. Water samples of the Kuroshio Current, SPG-surface, SPG-chlorophyll maximum, STG-surface water, and STG-chlorophyll maximum are presented respectively by the symbols circle, square, diamond, triangle, and inverted triangle; the symbols in purple, dark blue, red, green, light blue, orange, and black indicating incubation periods of 12 h, 24 h, 36 h, 48 h, 60 h, 72 h, and 96 h, respectively; filled symbols are for treated and unfilled symbols are for control samples.
