Overall effects of different fertilization practices on crop yield (a). The relative importance of bacterial, fungal and protistan diversity and community structure for crop yield (b). The effects of fertilization regime on bacterial, fungal and protistan community structure (c). In panel (a), bars with different letters indicate significant differences as defined by Tukey’s HSD test (P < 0.05). Ctrl: soil without fertilizer amendment; CF: soil amended with chemical fertilizer; OF: soil amended with organic fertilizer; BF: soil amended with bio-organic fertilizer. In panels (b) and (c), ***indicates P < 0.001. Statistical significance for explanatory power was calculated by multiple regression using linear models. Effect value (R2) and statistical significance were calculated by PERMANOVA analysis
