Pairwise Spearman rank correlation coefficients r (plus associated p-values) for the similarity matrices extracted by ecological and phylogenetic metrics1.

1Ecological ordination was measured with Bray-Curtis similarity matrix, while four phylogeny-based distance matrices (MPD and MNTD) were calculated using two branch-length options each. ‘All 1’ refers to equal branch lengths assigned to the tree topology while ‘Grafen’s Rho’ refers to Grafen’s Rho branch length transformation method [45]. Correlations that remain significant after applying a table-wide false discovery rate approach are printed in bold face.Pairwise Spearman rank correlation coefficients r (plus associated p-values) for the similarity matrices extracted by ecological and phylogenetic metrics1.
