Table 2. Results of the multiple regression on matrices analysis for the whole community.
| Environmental Variables | Whole community | |
| Bray-Curtis (R2 = 0.63b) | UniFrac (R2 = 0.38b) | |
| pH | – | – |
| Sqr (Elevation) | −14.8*** | 0.032*** |
| Ln (P) | – | −0.012* |
| Sqr (K) | −4.5** | 0.013* |
| NO3 − | – | – |
The variation (R2; both values are significant at P≤0.0001) of community distance that is explained by the remaining variables and the partial regression coefficients (b) of the final model is reported. Partial regression coefficients are reported for only significant values (*P≤0.0100, **P≤0.0010, and ***P≤0.0001).
