Direct and indirect effects of ethylene on peanut seed production. a Mean predictor importance of factors related to plant fitness based on random forest analysis. b Direct and indirect effects of ethylene emission on seed production using structural equation modelling (SEM). The significance levels of each predictor in the random forest analysis are as follows: *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01. The blue and red arrows in the structural equation model indicate positive and negative relationships, respectively, and dotted arrows represent nonsignificant paths (P > 0.05). Numbers adjacent to arrows are standardized path coefficients, and the path width indicates the strength of significant standardized path coefficients. The first principal coordinate (PCoA1, which explained 59.3% of the variation) is used to represent the composition of the bacterial β-diversity. ET, ethylene emission; Bio, plant biomass; KRA, keystone relative abundance; avgK, average network connectivity; β-div, bacterial β-diversity; SOC, soil organic carbon; TN, soil total nitrogen; AP, soil available phosphorus
