Variances of fungal communities in four sampling seasons and effects of environmental factors on the airborne fungal diversity. (A) 3D PCoA plot of airborne fungal communities in four seasons based on Bray–Curtis distance (ANOSIM, p = 0.001, r = 0.5360). (B) Distance-based Redundancy Analysis of the fungal communities, with symbols coded by seasons. (C) Number of shared and unique fungal genera among four seasons. The numbers are indicated in the respective circles and bars. (D) Comparison of top-fifteen abundant fungal genera in four seasons. Differences in the genera abundance as evaluated by Kruskal-Wallis test. (E) Differences of top-fifteen abundant fungal genera between two seasons based on Post hoc Dunn’s test. In the sub-figures, T, RH, WS and AP refer to “temperature,” “relative humidity,” “wind speed” and “air pressure,” respectively. The value p is indicated as: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
