NatComs succession trajectories when exposed to wheat roots and the proliferation of Pseudomonas protegens. Nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarities of the growing A or stable B NatCom samples, using a k = 2, and kernel density estimate of the replicate distribution per NMDS axis. Replicates (small dots) are connected to the centroid (big dot) by coloured lines according to samples and sampling times (dpi, days post inoculation). Numbers indicate sampling timepoint. C Inter-replicate consistency measured as the distance of each replicate to the centroid. Bars (±standard error) represent average values. Dots represent individual replicate values. D Spearman correlation between pairwise Bray-Curtis dissimilarities across samples and sampling time in growing (violet) or stable (blue) community states. Correlation coefficient (R) and p-value (p) are indicated. Curves represent the general additive model (GAM) fit (average, line) and the 95% confidence interval (shadow)
