Schematic overview of the main biotic factors modulating cyanobacteria relative abundance after AZ treatment for 7 days. Biotic factors mainly include Chlorophyta, viruses, fungi, zooplankton and heterotrophic bacteria. Red or blue font indicates that the relative abundance of the organisms increased or decreased, respectively, in response to the AZ treatment relative to that of the control. Plus sign indicates potentiated effect; minus sign indicates weakened effect. Double-arrow indicates the organism that has the biggest change (value of absolute change) in this kind of factor. The changes of these natural relationships between these species and cyanobacteria are not necessarily the direct cause of the increase of cyanobacteria. They may also be the result of the cyanobacterial bloom
