Correlation distribution in the most populated phyla (coded with different colors) among both persistent and transient bacterial OTUs (> 0.1% relative abundance) with significant associations (P < 0.05) in water samples (a) and sediment samples (b). The Spearman value (> 0.5 or < − 0.5) was plotted to represent the degree of (positive or negative) correlation with higher absolute value as robust correlation. (TIFF 6045 kb)
