[R-sig-eco] metaMDS - avoid species overlap in plots

[Jari Oksanen]

Hello,

This so frequently asked that it is a FAQ. Try

vegandocs("FAQ")

in R and see question 2.18.

It is also such a typical problem that it is in vegan intro: try

vegandocs("intro")

in R after loading vegan and see chapter 2.1.

Gavin Simpson has a blog article on plots, but I'm now on my phone and can't check the web easily.

HTH, Jari Oksanen

Aihe: [R-sig-eco] metaMDS - avoid species overlap in plots

Hi community,

Very simple question. How to avoid overlap plot of species in a metaMDS()
diagram?

I used this command...

> text(metaMDS_new2, display=c("species"), cex=0.6)

but some species are plotted one over the other and is not simple to read
the diagram.

Thanks for helping,
