Different Land Use Intensities in Grassland Ecosystems Drive Ecology of Microbial Communities Involved in Nitrogen Turnover in Soil
Figure 3
Between group analysis (BGA) using the mean values of all five replicates from each site.
For calculation all data were logarithm-transformed, scaled and calculated using the R software package (www. r-project.org). The small letters a and j sign the April and July samples. Clear differentiation according to the sampling time point is visible (all April samples are on the right site in the upper part, all July on the left site in the lower part). Also the intensely used sites are clear separated from the extensively used plots whereas the separation is more clear in July.
