Explaining bacterial community composition and change in diversity 1 week after inoculation in corn and soybean fields separately using dbRDA (community composition) and linear mixed effects models (diversity) with rain treatment and inoculation (inoc.) as fixed effects and plot x and y coordinates as conditional variables in dbRDA and block as a random effect in linear mixed effects models. Dashes indicate variables were removed during model selection.
