Acetotrophic Activity Facilitates Methanogenesis from LCFA at Low Temperatures: Screening from Mesophilic Inocula

Figure 7

Heat map showing the clustering and relative abundance of the bacterial and archaeal classes that formed 99.9% of the microbial community in the assays inoculated with VD, RD, and GS and fed with no substrate (blank), acetate, or synthetic dairy wastewater (SDW) at 10°C and 20°C. Symbols + and o indicate the kingdom bacteria and archaea, respectively, on the y-axis. Symbols ▲, ▼, and ■ represent the inoculum used in the assays as VD, RD, and GS, respectively, on the x-axis. Detailed information on the sample names is shown in Table S1.
