From: Isopod holobionts as promising models for lignocellulose degradation
Comparative analysis of bacterial communities associated with the lignocellulose degradation in isopods, considering (a) or not (b) the effect of sex. a A principal component analysis (PCA) plot of the bacterial counts, at the family level, that characterize the bacterial community from each studied species depending of its origin and sex (51.2% of the information was extracted from the two principal components PC1 and PC2). Each dot represents the taxonomic composition of a metagenome and each color represents the host species and its origin (laboratory or field). b Phylogenetic tree of the bacterial communities of the studied isopods. All branches are drawn to scale as indicated by the scale bar
