Ecology of aerobic anoxygenic phototrophs on a fine-scale taxonomic resolution in Adriatic Sea unravelled by unsupervised neural network.

Absolute and relative abundances of AAPs significantly differed on a seasonal scale (PERMANOVA pseudo-F = 23.13, p = 0.0001, unique permutations = 9957; pseudo-F = 27.98, p = 0.0001, unique permutations = 9948 respectively), but not with respect to region or depth (Additional file 1 : Table S3A and S3B respectively), although a decreasing trend was observed towards the open sea (Fig. 3 ).
