Design of the microcosmic experiment across generations and the profiles of rhizosphere microbial communities. a The experimental operation diagram of soil microbiota selection by plants; rhizosphere microbial richness: ACE index and number of species per sample (b); and relative abundance of the 10 most abundant microbial phyla (c) across three generations of Arabidopsis grown in microcosms. G-Wt-M represents microbiota in the corresponding generation of wild-type; G-pgr5-M represents microbiota in the corresponding generation of pgr5 Arabidopsis. Taxonomy details and significance analysis are shown in Additional file 2. Different letters represent significant differences (ANOVA followed by an LSD test; p < 0.05). Values are means ± SDs (n = 3)
