Results of the linear mixed models (LMMs) comparing plant species level network indices and mean log-transformed distance from the sea.
| t-value | P | |
|---|---|---|
| Species selectiveness (d′) | 2.489 | 0.024 |
| Nested contribution (ni) | −2.140 | 0.048 |
| Weighted closeness centrality (WCC) | −2.279 | 0.037 |
| Standardized connection (c) | −1.296 | 0.213 |
| Participation value (z) | −0.516 | 0.615 |
Each index was regressed with respect to a linear trend, with the identity of species as random factor, the mean distance from the sea as independent variable and each single index as dependent. If a given plant species was observed to flower for more than one survey, we used values of indices calculated in each survey as replicates.
