Cluster dendrograms based on distance matrices using Bray-Curtis dissimilarity of standardized genera abundance data based on 16S rDNA amplicons from extracted DNA (a) and RNA (cDNA) (b) of unfertilized soil-compost mixture (UC) at days 0, 35, 48 and 160 by the UPGMA agglomeration algorithm (for details see M&M section). Triplicate DNA from controls is designated as DC1 to DC3 and from pyrene treatment is designated as DP1 to DP3. (Cluster analysis of RNA was performed on pooled samples from triplicate controls (C) and pyrene treatment (P) and is used for comparison purpose only)
