Fig. 1From: Urban wastewater bacterial communities assemble into seasonal steady statesa Alpha diversity (measured with Shannon diversity), and b beta diversity (measured with Bray-Curtis dissimilarity) in raw wastewater bacterial communities. Diversity was measured in wastewater treatment plant influent in the 5-year time series of JI, in Milwaukee, WI; in JI and SS in Milwaukee, WI; from 77 WWTPs across the USA; and in wastewater collected from residential Milwaukee neighborhood sewers. Boxes depict the median and first and third quartiles. Whisker lines extend to interquartile ranges × 1.5 and points are outlier valuesBack to article page
