Table 2 Comparisons of the relationships between proportion of dead seeds and seedlings caused by animal attack/pathogen infestation towards increasing DTNCT among different fragment types at the seedling-emergence stage, using GLMMs assuming binomial distribution of residuals. P-values of all tests were shown and Bonferroni correction was used to evaluate the significance for all pair-wise tests
