Data underlying the publication "Communities of nematodes, bacteria and fungi differ among soils of different wild cabbage populations"

This data set underlies the study that aimed to describe bacterial, fungal and nematode diversity in soil associated with wild cabbage plants (Brassica oleracea) from five different population growing naturally along the Dorset coast in the UK. Samples were taken from bulk soil, rhizosphere soil and the roots of cabbage plants in 2011 and 2012. Nematode composition and abundance was determined in bulk soil, rhizosphere and roots. Presence/absence of fungal and bacterial OTU's was determined only in rhizosphere soil in 2011.
