Here, we quantifiedthe rhizosphere influence—a comparison between rhizosphere and bulk soilsamples—on bacterial, fungal, protists and invertebrate communities and on soilmultifunctionality across nine CWPs at their sites of origin. Overall, rhizosphereinfluence was higher for abundant taxa across the four microbial groups and hada positive influence on rhizosphere soil organic C and nutrient contents comparedto bulk soils. The rhizosphere influence on abundant soil microbiomes was moreimportant for soil multifunctionality than rare taxa and environmental conditions.Our results are a starting point towards the use of CWPs for rhizosphere engineeringin modern crops.
