Table 3

Summary of the permutation tests used to investigate the soil microbial community composition based on the OTUs across the three soil zones (rhizosphere and inner and outer bulk soil) of the tidal marsh plants (S. alterniflora and P. australis) in the Min River Estuary, East China Sea. Dissimilarity tests were performed by two-way PerMANOVA based on (Euclidean, Bray–Curtis and Horn) distance.
