Table 1.
ANCOVA testing for effects of dispersal and community on local functional diversity. This table shows the results of an ANCOVA on the amount of local FD treating community as a random effect and dispersal as a covariate. m.s. = mean square. Bold p-values represent significant effects on diversity (p < 0.05).
