Variation in bacterial communities after strain NCT- 2 inoculation. a Alpha diversity of bacterial communities in different compartments (n = 4). The P value was obtained through Kruskal–Wallis test and statistically significance was marked using Dunn’s multiple comparison test (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). b Principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) of bacterial communities based on Bray–Curtis distance (PerMANOVA by Adonis). Relative abundances of bacterial communities at the phyla (c) and genera (d) level in different compartments (n = 4). e Heat map of the top- 30 abundant bacterial genera across samples (n = 4). Similar samples were clustered horizontally, and vertical patterns illustrate the phylogenetic relationships. CBS, control group bulk soil; CRS, control group rhizosphere soil; BBS, treatment group bulk soil; BRS, treatment group rhizosphere soil; CRE, control group root endosphere; BRE, treatment group root endosphere; CLE, control group leaf endosphere; BLE, treatment group leaf endosphere
