Chao 663.48000 231.67115 837.96000 232.63302 0.00077
ACE 663.48000 231.67115 837.96000 232.63302 0.00077

Sobs, Chao, ACE, Shannon, and Simpson are types of α-diversity indexes. P value > 0.05 represents no significant difference; P value < 0.05 represents significant difference. Sobs: number of observed species; ACE: abundance-based coverage estimator; SD: standard deviation.
