Comparison on the bacterial communities among N-line, S-line and injected line <i>N</i>. <i>lugens</i>.

No significant difference is observed in α diversity (measured by Chao1, Shannon, Simpson, and dominance) of bacterial communities among three insect lines (A), while β diversity of bacterial communities presents significant difference between different insect lines according to the PCoA and Anosim MRPP, and Adonis test (B). (C) The differences in relative abundance of core bacterial genera among three insect lines are summarized. The values sharing the same letter are not significantly different at P < 0.05 (Tukey’s range test).
