Fig. 3From: Season, but not symbiont state, drives microbiome structure in the temperate coral Astrangia poculata Alpha diversity metrics in seawater samples. The values suggest varying patterns of microbial diversity in the seawater (a–d). One-way ANOVA demonstrated that season consistently affected seawater alpha diversity (e). Bolded p values were significant (p < 0.05). Results from a post hoc Tukey test are presented as letters (a, b) denoting groups that are significantly different. Columns that lack letters are not significantly differentBack to article page
