Table 1 Diversity indices calculated from bacterial DGGE profiles associated with pot-grown olive trees fertilized with sheep white wool residues WW, used at 4 different WW/soil percentages

From: Impact of sheep wool residues as soil amendments on olive beneficial symbionts and bacterial diversity

	Treatment	Richness (S)	Simpson (D)	Shannon–Weaver (Hs)	Evenness (Jp)
WW	C	38 ± 1.00a*	0.04 ± 0.007a	3.37 ± 0.07a	0.93 ± 0.02a
	0.5%	37 ± 2.52a	0.04 ± 0.002a	3.34 ± 0.06a	0.93 ± 0.01a
	1.0%	39 ± 2.91a	0.04 ± 0.001a	3.38 ± 0.06a	0.93 ± 0.00a
	2.0%	35 ± 1.45a	0.06 ± 0.007a	3.15 ± 0.08a	0.89 ± 0.03a

*Values (means ± standard errors of three replicates per treatment) followed by the same letter in a column are not significantly different at P < 0.05 (Tukey’s post hoc test)
