We only show the significant regression line. Red points and line represent 18-year-old fallow. Green points and line represent 30-year-old fallow. Black points and line represent 60-year-old fallow. Blue points and line represent old growth forest. Purple line represents total (all the four successional stages combined). * P < 0.05.
