Additional soy grown for 8 weeks during microbiome experiment were analyzed for total biomass, pod number, above ground biomass, and below ground biomass. Average biomass and pod number is shown (n = 5), with error bars representing standard deviation. No significant difference was found in above, below, or total biomass between treatments when tested using a one-way ANOVA (P > 0.05). Stars above the bars indicated a significantly higher pod number in the HA 50 ppm (*P < 0.05) and nHA 50 ppm (**P < 0.01) compared with control treatment.
