Figures & data
Figure 1. Bacterial PCR electrophoresis map. The bands in lanes 1 and 2 are bright and clear, there is no smear in the lanes, and the band size is in line with the target.

Figure 2. Sample dilution curve. Taking the randomly selected amount of sequencing data as the abscissa, and the Sobs index of the number of observed species as the ordinate, the red curve represents the new pit mud (sample 1), and the blue curve represents the old pit mud (sample 2).

Figure 7. Phylogenetic tree of the top 50 most abundant OTUs in the pit mud of the new factory and the old factory. Each branch in the evolutionary tree represents a class of species, and the branches are coloured according to the advanced taxonomic level to which the species belongs. The length of the branch is the evolutionary distance between two species, that is, the degree of difference between species.
