The linear discrimination analysis (LDA) coupled on the bacterial community of fresh material and amaranth on 60 days of ensiling, with effect size (LEfSe) analysis. The significant difference in species was estimated by an LDA score greater at default score = 5. The length of the histogram shows the LDA score of differences in these groups. The circles radiating from the inside to the outside of the evolutionary branching diagram represent the taxonomic levels from phylum to species; each small circle at a different taxonomic level represents a taxon at that level, and the size of the diameter of the small circle is proportional to the size of the relative abundance; the colouring principle is that the species with no significant differences are uniformly coloured in yellow, and the other differences are coloured in accordance with the subgroup of the species with the highest abundance. Different colours indicate different subgroups, and nodes of different colours indicate microbiota that play an important role in the subgroup represented by the colour. YLS, fresh amaranth; AhSCK, control group; AhSLP, commercial inoculant group; AhSLF, strain BL1 group; AhSLG, strain BL5 group
