- PERMANOVA results showing differences in beta diversity in the different experimental comparisons. Group: Only the parasite exposure variable was considered (control (C) vs. recipient (R); n = 30/group). Trial: Only the trial was considered (summer (S) vs. winter (W); n = 30/group). Trial x Group: Sampling points were not considered (groups compared were SC, SR, WC and WR; n = 15/group). Sample: All variables were considered (S, W, C, R, and different sampling points (t1, t2 and t3); n = 5/group)
