The keystone taxa identified and their links to neighbors in treated microcosms. Treatments include BaP and nitrate contamination (BN), BaP contamination (B), nitrate addition (N), and no-addition (CK)-treated microcosms. Each node signifies an OTU, and its color indicates the phylum to which it belongs. The keystone taxa were represented by rectangles. The sizes of the nodes are proportional to the node degree. A blue edge indicates a positive interaction between two individual nodes, while a red edge indicates a negative interaction
