Fig. 1: Cell and virus abundance in the parviglumis and B73 rhizobiome.
From: Zea mays genotype influences microbial and viral rhizobiome community structure
a Cell abundance per gram of soil in the rhizoplane and rhizosphere referred to a rhizobiome of biological replicates of parviglumis (n = 5) and B73 (n = 6). b Virus abundance per gram of the rhizobiome soil. c Virus to cell ratio (VCR) between parviglumis and B73. The boxes represent the interquartile range, the center represents the median, and the whiskers indicate ±1.5 times the interquartile range. A non-parametric unpaired t-test with Welch’s correction assuming unequal variances was conducted. The asterisk denoted a p value < 0.05 as statistically significant whereas ns denoted that the result was not significant.
