  1. PERMANOVA tests were performed only for the microbiome types for which were sampled for at least two regions and two seasons (Region:Season corresponds to the effect of the interaction). The reported values correspond to averages of tests results performed across three taxonomic ranks (Phylum, Family and ASV) for taxonomic and phylogenetic dissimilarity, estimated with presence-absence or relative abundances data (i.e. q = 0 and 1, respectively). A more comprehensive table summarizing all the performed PERMANOVA (all combinations of dissimilarity indices and taxonomic ranks) is provided in additional file (Additional file 1: Table S13)
