Community structuring of microeukaryotic plankton across the salinity gradient at station G in Xinglinwan Reservoir. a Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarity showing the variation of microeukaryotic plankton communities across three salinity levels. Significant level of all, core, and satellite taxa is P = 0.001. b Venn diagram showing the numbers of unique and shared OTUs between three different salinity levels. c Shannon-Wiener index along the salinity level at station G. Different letters indicate significant difference at P < 0.05 according to Tukey’s post-hoc test. All, all microeukaryotic plankton communities at station G; Core, core microeukaryotic plankton subcommunities at station G; Satellite, satellite microeukaryotic plankton subcommunities at station G
