Here, the measures of richness, abundance based on total counts of individual species, and cover have been used to demonstrate resiliency by treatment type.
However, when we analyzed PC species based on total acyl chain length or saturation level there were modest but statistically significant changes in the percentage of PC molecules with total acyl chain lengths of 32 or 34 carbons (Fig. 3C) and 0, 1, or 2 total double bonds (Fig. 3D), where FHV infection increased the fraction of PC molecules with longer unsaturated acyl chains.
Here, we attempted to establish species identity of small metazoans based on total (extractable) protein content using a simple protein extraction procedure.
However, to our knowledge, there has been no attempt to establish species identity of small metazoans based on total (extractable) protein content.
We apply a "toxicological" approach (cf. replies to Duffus editorial [ 37]) based on "Total Pb": a pooled value accounting for all the relevant Pb species.
The species richness analysis was performed by using MEGAN based on total sequencing reads [ 70].
*Percentages based on total state population.
Traditional methods [e.g., [ 43- 45]] for calculations of total species richness based on extrapolations from species-accumulation curves tend to underestimate species richness, because the addition of new samples normally leads to a vertical displacement of the species-accumulation curve [ 42].
Based on species numbers, we calculated species ratios of each functional type in the plots; a species ratio of a functional type in a plot was species number of the functional type in the plot divided by total species number of all functional types in the plot.
The numbers of species-specific SNPs for each species were estimated based on the total segregating sites of the three species.
Therefore, in total, the PCA for large trees was based on 20 species.
