Fig. 1. Thymidine incorporation in a range of Cr concentrations of extracts of bulk soil, bulk soil treated with Cr, rhizosphere, and rhizosphere soil treated with Cr, expressed as percent of the control-tolerance indicator (error bars represent standard error, n = 3). The line at 50% incorporation relative to the control is to assist in visualizing IC50.

Fig. 2. Average well color development (AWCD) in BIOLOG plates for Cr-amended and unamended bulk and rhizosphere soil (error bars represent standard error, n = 3). Symbols: open circles ({circ}), rhizosphere, closed circles (•), rhizosphere + Cr, open triangles ({triangleup}), bulk soil, closed triangles ({blacktriangleup}), bulk soil + Cr.

Fig. 3. Principal component analysis of BIOLOG plates data. Each point represents one replicate. Symbols: open circles ({circ}), rhizosphere, closed circles (•), rhizosphere + Cr, open triangles ({triangleup}), bulk soil, closed triangles ({blacktriangleup}), bulk soil + Cr. Values in parentheses show the variation explained by the principal component.
