Fig. 5From: The different responses of planktonic bacteria and archaea to water temperature maintain the stability of their community diversity in dammed riversa The assembly processes for different groups of bacterial and archaeal communities. b Random Forest analysis for bacterial deterministic process in the Wujiang River in 2017; c correlations between the variables in the Wujiang River in 2019. Pairwise comparisons of physical and chemical factors are displayed with a color gradient to denote Spearman’s correlation coefficients. Community composition is related to each environmental factor by performing a Mantel test. Significance level: p < 0.001***; p < 0.01**; p < 0.05*; d Spearman correlation between physical and chemical factors and diversity index of planktonic bacteria and archaea in the Pearl River in 2019. S: Shannon index; R: richness index. The numbers represent significant correlation coefficients (p < 0.05). The abbreviations are referred to the above textBack to article page
