(A) Alpha diversity (Chao1, Shannoneven and Shannon indices) of bacterial communities on MPs and seawater after 10, 30 and 60 days of exposure. (B) Principal Coordinates Analysis (PCoA) based on Bray–Curtis distance, calculated from OTUs of bacterial communities.

Figure 4

(A) Histogram of abundance distribution at the phylum level. (B) Heatmap of abundant bacterial genera (top 25) present in the microbial community of different groups. (C) Cladograms of LEfSe analysis using abundance of the full taxonomy for MPs and seawater. Bacterial groups from phylum to species level are listed from the center out. Biomarkers were selected based on the Kruskal–Wallis test (p < 0.05) and the linear discriminant analysis score greater than 4.5. (D) Abundance bubble chart of potential degradation bacteria and pathogens at the genus level.

Figure 5

(A) Hierarchical cluster analysis of KEGG categories at level 3. (B) LEfSe analysis using abundance of the predicted metabolic pathway. Biomarkers were selected based on the Kruskal–Wallis test (p < 0.05) and the linear discriminant analysis score greater than 2.8. (C) Comparison of the abundance of predicted metabolic pathways of Drug resistance: antimicrobial, Infectious disease: bacterial and Xenobiotics biodegradation at level 3. A positive value indicates a significantly (p < 0.01) higher abundance of metabolic pathways in bacteria associated with seawater compared with this those associated with MPs.
