Dual hierarchal dendrogram of the taxonomic classification data, with each sample clustered on the -axis. The relative abundance of Bacillus, Paenibacillus, and Brevibacillus was highest in all the 10 soil samples and the soil samples with more similar microbial populations being mathematically clustered closer together.
