Drivers of microbial community composition. a CCA ordination showing the bacterial community composition in relation to significant local environmental variables and regional geographical factors (P < 0.05). TDS, total dissolved solids; WT, water temperature; TN, total nitrogen; TSS, total suspended solids. Both the two CCA axes are statistically significant (P < 0.05). b Venn diagram presenting the variation partitioning results for microbial communities by environmental variables (Env.) and the spatial factors including linear trend and PCNM variables. The fraction values displayed are computed from adjusted R-squares. c Relative importance of stochastic mechanism on community assembly in river and lake habitats. The significance differences of the actual communities from those of the related null expectation are indicated as ***P < 0.001 based on PERMANOVA test
