From: Can linear transportation infrastructure verges constitute a habitat and/or a corridor for vertebrates in temperate ecosystems? A systematic review

Fig. 6

Summary flow chart of the meta-analyses and results addressing our specific question Q2 (Is biodiversity in LTI verges equal to, higher, or lower than in similar habitats away from LTIs?). For abundance, data were analysed for each LTI separately (five subsets of data), and for species richness data were analysed for birds only. The statistical results presented are QM the between-class heterogeneity, P the P-value, N the number of cases, and d the estimated mean effect size with 95% confidence intervals in brackets. Statistical significance (P-value < 0.05) is highlighted in bold
