a The fold change (left) and gene abundance (right) of COG categories in the control and salt treated rhizosphere soil determined by metagenomic analysis. b The fold change (left) and expression level (right) of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the control and salt treated rhizosphere soil determined by metatranscriptomic analysis. Low abundance categories in all samples, i.e., extracellular structures (COG W) and nuclear structure (COG Y), were not shown. P-values were calculated by two-sided Student’s t-test (*adjusted P < 0.05 by Benjamini and Hochberg method). c, d The top 15 highest expression levels of DEGs annotated as bacterial chemotaxis (c) and flagellar assembly subcategories (d). e, f The taxonomic annotation of bacterial chemotaxis (e) and flagellar assembly DEGs (f). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
