Permutation test for homogeneity of multivariate dispersionsa
| Parameter | No. of df | Sum-of-square value | Mean square value | F model | Permutation | P value (>F) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stage group | 2 | 0.025 | 0.0124 | 12.518 | 999 | <0.001* |
| Residuals | 66 | 0.065 | 0.001 | 0.807 |
The multivariate dispersions (number of permutations = 999) indicate that the dispersion of the distances in microbial communities among three ontogenetic stages is significantly heterogeneous. *, parameter with a significant P value.
