Table 2 Summary of the distribution of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) among bacterial lineages. RS OTUs gives the OTUs found in the 115 root systems. S OTUs gives the OTUs found in the 63 soil samples. Only taxonomic groups that contained >1% of the OTUs are included in the table. Numbers in bold and italics represent taxa that are significantly different at phyla level (p < 0.05, chi-square test)

From: Different bacterial communities in ectomycorrhizae and surrounding soil
