Figure 1 in Guan et al. (2025): "The effect of drought on plant growth before, during, and after drought. The shoot length (A), shoot fresh weight (B), and root dry weight (C) at different sampling times after sowing. Control: well-watered plants. Drought: drought stressed plants. (D) PCoA of Bray-Curtis dissimilarities of the bacterial community based on 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. (E) Shannon diversity. Each box plot represents data from five replicates. Each dot represents a sample point. Asterisks in (A–D) indicate a statistically significant difference between the two groups (drought and control), which was derived from the t-test: *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001. The horizontal bars within boxes represent medians. The tops and bottoms of boxes represent the 75th and 25th percentiles, respectively. The upper and lower whiskers extend to data no more than 1.5 × the interquartile range from the upper edge and lower edge of the box, respectively."
