Extended Data Fig. 5: SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) value plots showing the magnitude and direction of relationships between environmental predictors and mycorrhizal rarity.
From: Global hotspots of mycorrhizal fungal richness are poorly protected
For A) AM fungi and B) EcM fungi, variables at the top of the graph are the most important predictors with decreasing importance down the figure. Bar graphs (left) show mean absolute SHAP values that measure the overall magnitude of each covariate on model predictions in units of fungal rarity-weighted richness. Beeswarm plots (right) show the directionality of SHAP values, with points left of the zero–line indicating a negative relationship between mycorrhizal rarity and a given predictor. The red/blue color gradient represents fungal richness values associated with a predictor.
