Soil SEED hierarchical microbial (level 4), RefSeq bacterial and eukaryotic expressed genes associated with control and neonicotinoid seed treatment at different times

Soil microbial genes that are significantly differentially expressed (adjusted P<0.05) among different times and between control and neonicotinoid-treated samples in a 2 year soybean/corn rotation in L'Acadie, Quebec, Canada, identified by differential expression analysis of sequence data (DESeq2).
