Dear Gian,
I'm still not quite sure about the functioning of adonis(). I made some
proofs and I don't understand how does it calculate the degrees of
freedom of a nested factor. But this is most probably due to my lack of

Jari,
I am here again ... :)
So, to try having a comparison of the real goodness of my metaMDS data I
tried to perform a DCA (with same input table)
