Fig. 4From: Taxonomic and functional diversity of cultured seed associated microbes of the cucurbit familySummary of in vitro functional traits of putative seed-associated endophytes cultured from cucurbits, grouped by bacterial genus. a Selected photos for the in vitro phenotype screens used. b Distribution of in vitro functional traits of the endophytes grouped by bacterial genus. The yellow highlight refers to the most prevalent functional trait exhibited by the endophytes within a bacterial genus (row). The dark orange highlight refers to the most prevalent bacterial genus that displays a particular functional trait (column). The green highlight refers to the intersection of the two categories.
