Effect of mulching and inoculation on soil bacterial community. The soil sampling used for the analysis was carried out at the end of the experiment in September 2021. (a) Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) of bacterial community composition. (b) Relative abundance of the top 30 bacterial genera. The star marks the genus Azotobacter inoculated in the treatments. Mulching, mulched treatments; non-mulching, non-mulched control treatments; SM700 and SM199, treatments inoculated with Azotobacter strains SM700 and SM199, respectively; non-inoculated, non-inoculated control treatments
