Table 3. Alpha diversity of “resident/core” fungal community as measured by the mean Shannon’s index ± standard deviation (SD).

Temporal samples Shannon’s index (P-values)
2014 vs. 2016 0.011 ± 0.014 vs. 1.35 ± 0.66 (6.96e-05)
C. concentrica 2014 vs. 2016 0.008 ± 0.015 vs. 1.41 ± 0.9 (0.04)
Scopalina sp. 2014 vs. 2016 NA vs. 1.38 ± 0.0001 (NA)
T. anhelans 2014 vs. 2016 0.013 ± 0.018 vs. 0.75 ± 0.45 (0.62)
Seawater 2014 vs. 2016 0.013 ± 0.018 vs. 1.89 ± 0.39 (0.01)
Sample type
Seawater vs. Scopalina sp. 0.45 ± 0.52 vs. 1.38 ± 0.0001 (0.98)
T. anhelans vs. Scopalina sp. 1.14 ± 1.06 vs. 1.38 ± 0.0001 (0.58)
T. anhelans vs. Seawater 1.14 ± 1.06 vs. 0.45 ± 0.52 (0.59)
Scopalina sp. vs. C. concentrica 1.38 ± 0.0001 vs. 0.71 ± 0.96 (0.77)
Seawater vs. C. concentrica 0.45 ± 0.52 vs. 0.71 ± 0.96 (0.84)
T. anhelans vs. C. concentrica 1.14 ± 1.06 vs. 0.71 ± 0.96 (0.96)

Note:

Comparison of diversity between samples were calculated with ANOVA and multiple comparison with Tukey’s test of subsampled resident/core fungal communities at an OTU-level clustered at 97%. P-values smaller than 0.05 are shown in bold.
