a Difference at the amplicon sequence variants (ASV) level. Blue and yellow bubbles represent ASVs with significant enrichment (FDR < 0.05) in rhizosphere and bulk soil, respectively, based on statistical analysis with ALDEx2. Bubble sizes represent the ALDEx2 effect size between the relative abundance of ASV in the rhizosphere and in the bulk soils. The largest circles in black represent the phylum level, and the innermost circles in green represent the order level. All ASVs that can be annotated at genus level were marked next to the corresponding bubbles. b Differences at phylum level. Positive values indicate higher relative abundance of the phylum in rhizosphere, while negative values indicate higher relative abundance of the phylum in the bulk soil. The differences were statistically analyzed using ALDEx2. An asterisk (*) indicates a significant difference with FDR < 0.05 based on statistical analysis with ALDEx2. Source data are provided as a Source data file.
