Table 1. Effect of nematode species and soil type on the structure of the bacterial and fungal community attached to the infective stages of the nematodes in soil.

Effect Bacterial community Fungal community
r2 P P—Chloroplast r2 P
Soil M10.23 vs. M10.56 0.07 0.18 0.15 0.05 0.72
M. incognita vs. P. penetrans 0.11 0.003 0.004 0.17 0.001
