Log relative abundance of OTUs classified as the Populus leaf pathogens Septoria sp. and Marssonina brunnea across leaf niches within P. deltoides (DD) and P. trichocarpa × deltoides hybrids (TD). Bars represent means ± SE. Any bars missing indicate that OTU is absent from all samples within that habitat category. Septoria sp. and Marssonina brunnea relative abundance differed across habitats and genotypes (p ≤ 0.05). Representative of developing vs. mature leaves for Populus deltoides (a vs b) and TD hybrids (c vs d), respectively. The X-axis denotes leaf niche sampled. UPM upper phyllosphere mature, LPD lower phyllosphere developing, LPM lower phyllosphere mature, DWL whole leaf developing phyllosphere, MWL whole leaf mature phyllosphere, LED leaf endosphere developing, LEM leaf endosphere mature, PED petiole endosphere developing, PEM petiole endosphere mature
