NPR, MUR, and MIR represent the rhizosphere soil from the newly planted, monocultured uninfected and infected plants, respectively. NPP, MUP, and MIP represent the rhizoplane soil from the newly planted, monocultured uninfected and infected plants, respectively. Different letters in the columns show significant differences between the different treatments in the rhizosphere (NPR vs. MUR vs. MIR) or rhizoplane (NPP vs. MUP vs. MIP), determined by Tukey’s test (p < 0.05).
