The slope indicates the coupling coefficient, and the numbers in parentheses are the variation intervals of the slope. P values indicate the statistical significance of coefficients by the two-sided z-test (α=0.05). The letter n represents the sample size of paired data of plants and soil biota under GCFs, and the numbers in parentheses are the number of publications.
