a Top: Shannon diversity index for thermophilic controls (1st column) as well as samples under LCL (2nd column), MCL (3rd column), and HCL (4th column) conditions. Results of day 14 and day 28 are presented in grey and black, respectively. Bottom: Boxplots show diversity results of controls and LCL, MCL, and HCL samples of day 28. b NMDS analyses of thermophilic OTUs of the control as well as of the gallic-, syringic-, vanillic-, ferulic-, and coumaric acid samples at low (LCL), medium (MCL), and high (HCL) overload conditions of day 0 (control), 14, and 28. The samples are connected to generate a minimal spanning tree. The x-axis is lengthened for better visualisation. The Shepard plot shows a stress value of 0.12
