A Morphological differences of LM50 and Peu-H transplants in different soils (LM50-grown soil or Peu-H-grown soil). B Plant height and fresh shoot biomass of LM50 and Peu-H transplants in different soils (LM50-grown soil or Peu-H-grown soil). n =  3 biologically independent samples. Each bar represents the mean ± SEM. C Linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) was performed to identify the rhizosphere bacteria that are differentially represented between the different poplar sections. From the inside to the outside, the sequence is boundary—phylum—class—order—family—genus. Each node represents a species, and the larger the node, the higher the relative abundance. The letters represent different phyla, and the colors indicate that the species is significantly different in the corresponding section (LDA score > 2, two-sided Kruskal–Wallis test, FDR adjusted P values < 0.05). Principal Component Analysis (PCA; P values were calculated by one-way PERMANOVA) and Hierarchical Clustering Analysis (HCA) of the microbiome (D, G; ASV > 2), phenotype (E, H), and transcriptome (F, I; TPM > 0) datasets from the nine poplar species. Different letters indicate significantly different groups (One-way ANOVA, P values < 0.05; P values are shown in the Source Data file). FW, fresh weight. Scale bars: (A) 10 cm. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
