Local Network Properties of Soil and Rhizosphere Microbial Communities in Potato Plantations Treated with a Biological Product Are Important Predictors of Crop Yield.

amyloliquefaciens QST713—a strain isolated from the soil of a Californian organic peach orchard with a demonstrated effective broad-spectrum bactericide and fungicide activity ( 43 ) through a number of different mechanisms of action ( 44 , 45 )—showed a slight but significant effect on the beta-diversity of fungal communities ( R 2 = 0.007, P value 0.04) and an even slighter and just marginally significant effect on bacterial communities ( R 2 = 0.004, P value 0.07) (see Table S1 in the supplemental material).

In addition to location and sampling time (which includes the difference between bulk soil and rhizosphere) as the main variables defining the microbiome composition, the microbial inoculant applied as a treatment also had a small but significant effect in fungal communities and a marginally significant effect in bacterial communities.
