Fig. A1. Effects of rhizobia on Phaseolus lunatus aboveground and belowground biomass. Rhizobia treatment (present or absent) is indicated as R+ or R-, respectively. (A) Aboveground biomass, F_1,51 = 60.22, P < 0.001; (B) Belowground biomass, F_1,51 = 16.98, P < 0.001. Shoot and root biomass is measured in grams of dry mass.
