Table 1 Moss genus, moss species nested within moss genus, gametophyte section, soil pH, soil temperature, and their interactions drive moss bacterial community composition. Shown are the PERMANOVA on Bray–Curtis dissimilarity (n = 131 and n = 121 samples respectively) degrees of freedom (df), determination coefficients (R2), and p-values (significant values are shown in bold).
