PERMANOVA analysis (9,999 permutations) comparing the factors Layer (fixed) and Depth (fixed) for the samples of the DOSMARES project using Jaccard index.

PERMDISP probabilities for homogeneity of dispersion are also shown. Pairwise tests for levels of the significant factors are presented with uncorrected P-values. Significant values after FDR correction are indicated with an asterisk. The symbol § denotes comparisons for which PERMDISP detected a significant heterogeneity of dispersion (in comparisons of layers only, as the overall test was not significant for depth).
