Verbatim
e0“three cover crops (alfalfa, brassica, and fescue) were grown alone, in paired mixtures, and all together under different densities”
e6“mixtures of all three plants showed an increase in abundance of Planctomyces sp. SH-PL14 and Sandaracinus amylolyticus which were not represented in the monocultures”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association For all monoculture trials, total pot biomass increased as density increased
- Observation Monoculture plantings of brassica were associated with the bacteria Azospirillum spp.
- Observation Monoculture plantings of fescue were associated with Ensifer adhaerens
- Observation Monoculture alfalfa was associated with both Azospirillum spp. and Ensifer adhaerens
- Observation Mixtures showed differential abundances of bacterial taxa not previously identified in monocultures
- Association In polycultures, total above-ground alfalfa biomass increased with density
- Association In polycultures, total above-ground brassica biomass remained unchanged with density
- Intervention effect Facilitation was best supported for the alfalfa-fescue mixture, whose total above ground biomass was the highest of any mixture
- Association Bulk soil microbiome correlated with increasing plant densities showed increases in plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria
- Association Agrobacterium tumefaciens increased with alfalfa-fescue plant densities
