beta diversity explanation (jaccard_distance)

Hi @terren,
In the future, please don't edit previous posts to add new questions, it's a lot easier to follow a thread when all the replies are in chronic order.

It looks like you already asked this question on another thread and had an excellent response there. Please re-read the answer there from @ChrisKeefe.

There is a great thread here that should help interpreting beta group-significance boxplots

I believe I already answered this above as well. Based on the adjusted p values (labelled: q-value) you are accepting the null hypothesis which would suggest you are unable to detect differences between your groups.
