Fig. 2From: Metagenomes and metatranscriptomes shed new light on the microbial-mediated sulfur cycle in a Siberian soda lakea Average relative abundance of the top 50 abundant genera or OTUs in Cock Soda Lake identified by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. The minimum relative abundance shown is 0.1% (white). The yellow stars indicate the genera from which soda lake isolates were previously characterized that have the ability to transform inorganic sulfur compounds. b Richness and diversity of the prokaryote communities in the soda lake brine and at different sediment depthsBack to article page
