aSeparate sets of PERMANOVAs were conducted for each aspect of compound composition: compound occurrences (presence/absence) and structural composition.

bStatistical results from permutation tests showing strong support for an effect of Piper species on composition.

cProportion of sample-to-sample variance explained by species (i.e., interspecific variation).

dProportion of sample-to-sample variance explained by individual and within-individual (residual) variance.
