Results of general linear mixed model (GLMM) analyses on the absolute abundances (OTUs) of total selected microbes (archaea + bacteria) for selected microbial taxa showing the main and two- and three- factor interactive effects of soil (S), water level (W), nutrient addition (F = Fert), and plants (P).

(A) archaea families; (B) bacteria phyla, including selected Proteobacteria classes; (C) functional groups (absolute abundance and proportion of total selected microbes); (D) r/k strategists. Factors: Soil (P = peat; M = mineral); Water (L = low (15 cm below soil surface); H = high (saturated, water level maintained at the soil surface); Nutrients (Fert) (UF = unfertilized (0 kg NPK ha−1 yr−1); F = fertilized (300 kg NPK ha−1 yr−1); plants (UV = un-vegetated; V = vegetated). P values: * = < 0.05; ** < 0.01; *** < 0.001; + < 0.10.
