propionic-spiked group, there was no significant difference ( p = 0.80) during the pre-shock stage, while there was a decreasing trend in Chao1-index of α-diversity ( p = 0.09).
propionic-spiked group, there was no significant difference ( p = 0.80) during the pre-shock stage, while there was a decreasing trend in Chao1-index of α-diversity ( p = 0.09).
With respect to the archaeal community, there was an increasing trend in Chao1 and Shannon index until the inhibition stage in the propionic-spiked reactors ( Figure 3C ).
