Bacterial community composition of oil palm phyllosphere samples. Bacterial diversity profile of unenriched (T0) and labelled (heavy; H) fractions of 13C-isoprene incubations of oil palm leaf samples was analysed by 16S rRNA gene amplicon (16S) and metagenomics (MG) sequencing. The unenriched bacterial community (L T0) represents the average of three biological replicates. 13C-heavy DNA from replicates 1, 2 and 3 of leaf incubations were combined before MG sequencing due to their highly similar 16S rRNA gene community profile shown by DGGE, resulting in sample L 13C H R1-3 (see the “Methods” section). Only genera with > 5 RA% in at least one of the conditions are represented. Genera present at > 10% in any sample are shown in bold. Genera with < 5% RA are grouped in “others”. For complete 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing data, including individual replicates and 12C-isoprene controls, see Fig S3
