(a) Effects of species origin within the dry and the wet site, and (b) effects of site on species with dry and wet origin under control conditions. Effects of exclosure (c) within the dry site on dry origin and wet origin species, and (d) within the wet site, on dry and wet origin species. Post-hoc analyses are based on least squares means contrasts [46] with Tukey correction. Significant contrasts are in bold.
