From: Nectar sugars and bird visitation define a floral niche for basidiomycetous yeast on the Canary Islands

Figure 1

Ordination plot of yeast diversity. First and second axis of non-parametric multidimensional scaling of yeast diversity based on a Bray-Curtis dissimilarity matrix (stress: 0.09). The plot shows respective host-plants and sampling years. Arrows correspond to fitted nectar traits (solid lines) and flower-visitor frequencies (dotted lines): arrow directions are gradients and lengths are proportional to the correlations between variables and the ordination. Nectar volume and sugar concentration are shown separately without distortion for the sake of lucidity.
