Fig. 3: Relationships between complementarity and selection effects with plant species richness, and their relationships with ecosystem multifunctionality, in control and fungicide addition treatment plant communities.
From: Soil fungi influence the relationship between plant diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality
a, b Relationships between plant species richness and mean ( ± 1 SE) complementarity and selection effects of plant communities. The inset box in panel (a) shows the mean ( ± 1 SE) complementarity effect of control and fungicide addition treatment plant communities across all levels of plant species richness by a One-way ANOVA (n = 92 in control communities and n = 98 in fungicide addition communities). *P = 0.005. c, d Relationships between complementarity and selection effects with mean ( ± 1 SE) ecosystem multifunctionality (average value method) of plant communities. Orange triangles and blue circles represent control and fungicide addition treatment plant communities, respectively. Solid and dashed lines represent significant (P < 0.05) and non-significant relationships based on linear mixed models (n = 92 in control plant communities and n = 98 in fungicide addition plant communities), respectively.
