Percentage composition of total soil and root borne nematodes from soils and roots collected in tillage and fertilizer split plot experiment at Chinhoyi University of Technology farm, Zimbabwe, combined for all time points and treatments in the 2014/15 and 2015/16 seasons.

Biplot representing the principal component analysis (PCA) performed on nematodes assemblages (Heli (Helicotylenchus), Nonp (non-plant-parasitic nematodes), Scute (Scutellonema), Roty (Rotylenchulus), Xiph (Xiphinema), Tyle (Tylenchus), Trich (Trychodorus), Melo (Meloidogyne), and Praty (Pratylenchus)) and maize grain yield (GYD) collected from 36 plots that were subjected to three tillage systems (basin NT (BASIN), rip line NT (RIP), and conventional tillage (CONV)) and four fertilizer regimes (no-fertilizer (NF), micro dosing (LF), medium fertilizer (MF), and high fertilizer (HF)) at Chinhoyi University farm, Zimbabwe, in 2014/15 cropping season. Treatments are depicted using arrows while nematodes are depicted with dots.

Factor	Level of factor	Explanation
Tillage	Basin planting	Each basin (15 × 15 × 15 cm) was done using hoes. The basins were about 10 cm below the rest of the land after planting
	Rip line seeding	Marked using a tractor-mounted ripper to a depth of about 15 cm
	Conventional tillage	Disc plowed as primary tillage followed by secondary tillage using a disc harrow
Fertilizer regime	Control (no fertilizer)	No fertilizer
	Micro dosing (low fertilizer)	100 g of manure per plant position + 80 kg ha⁻¹ compound D fertilizer (8 N: 14 P₂O₅: 7 K₂O) + 80 kg ha⁻¹ ammonium nitrate (34.5% N) (total rate: 35.2 kg ha⁻¹ N: 12.2 kg ha⁻¹ P₂O₅: 6.6 kg ha⁻¹K₂O)
	Medium fertilizer rate	100 kg ha⁻¹ compound D fertilizer (8 N: 14 P₂O₅: 7 K₂O) + 100 kg ha⁻¹ ammonium nitrate (34.5% N) (total rate: 41.5 kg ha^-1 N: 14 kg ha⁻¹P₂O₅: 7 kg ha⁻¹K₂O)
	High fertilizer rate	200 kg ha⁻¹ compound D fertilizer (8 N: 14 P₂O₅: 7 K₂O) + 200 kg ha⁻¹ ammonium nitrate (34.5% N) (total rate: 83 kg ha⁻¹ N: 28 kg ha⁻¹ P₂O₅: 14 kg ha⁻¹ K₂O)
