Differences in identified bacterial taxa observed with LEfSe analysis in the midgut of PTMs. a Cladogram of bacterial taxa from the midgut of PTMs living on HZ-88 potato leaves (HZ88-LG) and tubers (HZ88-TG). The brightness of each dot is proportional to its effect size. b Cladogram of bacterial taxa from the midgut of PTMs living on LS-6 potato leaves (LS6-LG) and tubers (LS6-TG). The brightness of each dot is proportional to its effect size. The brightness of each dot is proportional to its effect size. c Histogram of the linear discriminant analysis (LDA) scores computed for differentially abundant bacterial taxa between PTMs fed on HZ-88 tubers (HZ88-TG) and leaves (HZ88-LG). The red bars indicate a negative score, and the green bar represents a positive score. d Histogram showing LDA scores computed for differentially abundant bacterial taxa between PTMs fed on LS-6 tubers (LS6-TG) and leaves (LS6-LG). The red bars indicate a negative score, and the green bars indicate a positive score. LS6-LG and LS6-TG refer to the midgut samples of PTMs fed on the leaves and tubers of cultivar LS-6, respectively. HZ88-LG and HZ88-TG refer to the midgut samples of PTMs fed on the leaves and tubers of HZ-88, respectively
