Online Resource 3: Mantel correlation coefficients (r) between distance matrices derived from dormant and active rotifers (a), cladocerans (b) and the entire zooplankton community (c)and environmental (Environm)or geographical (Space) matrices. Mantel correlation coefficients (r) was determined using qualitative (Jaccard index) data. Mantel’s r in bold depict significant values (P < 0.05). n = number of lakes.
