Figure Lengend Snippet: MBPK is systemically activated by M. sexta larvae attack. A single M. sexta larva (≈7 cm long) was placed near the exposed edge of a terminal leaflet of the lower leaf and allowed to chew continuously for 3 min without other contact with the leaf (see Materials and Methods). The wounded leaf (lane W), the upper unwounded leaf (lane U), and untreated control leaves (lane C) were assayed for MBPK activity.

Article Title: Community assembly of gut microbiomes in yolk sac fry of Atlantic salmon: host genetics, environmental microbiomes, and ecological processes

doi: 10.1093/femsec/fiaf007

Figure Lengend Snippet: Alpha diversity indices for gut samples, RW samples, and samples of the water added to fish flasks at water exchanges. (A) Observed and Chao1 ASV richness, (B) exponential Shannon diversity, and C) evenness. Each dot represents one sample. Add-K and Add-r indicates flask added K- and r- selected water upon water exchanges, respectively, and includes both flasks with the aquaculture and the wild salmon strain. There were eight rearing flasks per group (four for each of the wild and aquaculture strain of salmon), and individual guts were sampled for four individuals per flasks. RW samples (one per replicate flask; in total 16 flasks) and gut samples were collected on 22 dph, and samples of the r- and K- selected water prior to addition to the rearing flasks were collected 14, 16, 18, and 21 dph. RW: rearing water; AW: added water.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Community composition for samples of the water added to fish flasks and the RW. (A) Community composition at the family level. Only families with relative abundances higher than 1% in at least one sample were included. (B) Relative abundance of the 20 most abundant ASVs. For the samples of the AW (i.e. the water added to the rearing flasks at water exchanges), the number given under the bars for each sample indicates the sampling day (14, 16, 18, and 21 dph). For the RW, one sample per rearing flask was collected on 22 dph. For the RW samples, W designate samples from flasks with fry of the wild salmon strain, while A designate samples from flasks with the aquaculture salmon strain, and numbers indicate the rearing flask.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Comparison of the microbiomes associated with the RW and the AW. (A) Bray–Curtis similarities for comparison of community composition of K- and r- selected AW (i.e. the water added to the rearing flasks at water exchanges) and the RW. (B) A PCoA plot based on Bray–Curtis similarities for comparison of community composition between samples of the AW and the RW. (C) A PCoA plot based on Bray–Curtis similarity for comparison of the composition of RW microbiomes between Add-r and Add-K flasks. Each point represents one sample. For each rearing condition (Add-K and Add-r), there were eight replicate rearing flasks, including flasks both the wild and aquaculture strain of salmon. RW samples (one per flask; in total 16 flasks) were collected 22 dph, and samples of the water added to the rearing flasks were collected 14, 16, 18, and 21 dph.

(A) Samples labeled according to host strain; the wild strain (Wi) and aquaculture strain (Aq). (B) The same PCoA, but with samples labeled according to the type of water added to the flasks (Add-r and Add-K flasks). Samples represent single guts dissected from each of four individuals in each of four replicate flasks per condition at 22 dph.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Community composition at the family level for gut samples. Four individual gut samples were collected from each rearing flask at 22 dph, and there were four replicate flasks for each rearing condition, i.e. Add-r and Add-K flasks with fry of either the wild or aquaculture salmon strain. Families with relative abundance below 10% in all samples a were not included. Each bar represents one sample. The numbers specified for each bar indicate the ID of the relevant rearing flask (first number) and the ID of the fish (second number).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Body length of the yolk sac fry on 15 and 22 dph. On 15 and 22 dph, six individuals were collected from each of four replicate rearing flasks for each sample group. Thus, each bar represents 24 individuals. An exception was one of the Add-K Flasks rearing flask with only four individuals left on 22 dph (due to previous sampling and a few unhatched and dead eggs). Means are indicated by crosses. Add-K and Add-r indicates samples from flasks added K- selected water or r- selected water upon water exchanges, respectively. Wild and Aqua indicates samples from flasks with fish from the wild and aquaculture salmon strains, respectively.
