First generation cluster discrimination. Graphic representation of cluster determination through K-means. Each panel (A) 14d.PRE; (B) 21d.PRE; (C) 14d.N-PRE, and (D) 21d.N-PRE, represent the output of the K-means clustering algorithm. On each panel, 20 growth curves were analyzed to obtain the clusters: eight replicates of the initial 4-member combination (Consortium_1 to Consortium_8) and three replicates for each individual culture: PsJN_1 to PsJN_3 for Paraburkholderia phytofirmans PsJN; JMP134_1 to JMP134_3 for Cupriavidus pinatubonensis JMP134; CH34_1 to CH34_3 for C. metallidurans CH34, and LMG19424_1 to LMG19424_3 for C. taiwanensis LMG19424. Clusters that contain the 4-member combination are colored light blue. A larger symbol is presented in each cluster centroid
