The effects of environmental parameters on the distribution of Bathyarchaeia and Bathy-6. The relationship between Bathyarchaeia and Bathy-6 communities and environment parameters (a). SEM analyses reveal the direct and indirect effects of climate parameters, pH, and C/N on the relative abundance of Bathy-6 (b). Red lines represent a significant correlation, and grey lines represent no significant correlation. R2 represents the proportion of variance explained. Pearson’s correlations between Bathyarchaeia and environment parameters at Subgroup level (c). * and ** represent the significance at 0.05 and 0.01 level
