VDi	0.06^a	0.09^a	0.07^a
K_s	0.28^a	0.27^a	0.72^b

Letters represent statistically significant differences between zones for each trait and fragment based on non-parametric bootstrap test (Cabras et al., 2006). Significance at 5% after Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (three per trait).
