SARDI extractions are indicated by (S). Dmean Rep data are the mean dispersions from the four sub-plots according to extraction size. Superscript letters indicate ANOVA grouping with Tukey’s test at 95% confidence. Columns without grouping superscripts are not testable via ANOVA. SIM = within group average similarity determined by PERMANOVA. MVD = Multivariate dispersion index. Bolded values indicate highest and lowest values for each column. Columns lacking ANOVA grouping were not testable.
