Genes and transcripts involved in nitrogen fixation and nitrogen cycling pathways. a Relative abundance of genes and transcripts for nitrogen cycling in the in metagenomic (MG) and metatranscriptomic (MT) contigs from the hindguts of E. Pulchripes and G. connexa. Included are the genes involved in nitrogen fixation, nitrite oxidation, nitrate reduction, nitrite reduction to ammonia, nitrite reduction, nitric oxide reduction, nitrous oxide reduction, and urea utilisation. Full names of the gene families and their corresponding KEGG IDs are available in Table S13 (b) A heatmap showing the relative abundance of the genes and transcripts in each MAG with at least one of the genes. TPM+1. The tree was reconstructed using 39 concatenated bacterial single copy gene (ribosomal proteins) from our MAGs
