They are just labels and metaMDS **has** performed an NMDS. Not sure why Jari labelled these as "MDSx". If this bothers you so, add your own labels: require("vegan") data(dune) sol <- metaMDS(dune) plot(sol, xlab = "NMDS1", ylab = "NMDS2") HTH G -- Gavin Simpson, PhD [t] +1 306 337 8863 Adjunct Professor, Department of Biology [f] +1 306 337 2410 Institute of Environmental Change & Society [e] gavin.simp...@uregina.ca 523 Research and Innovation Centre [tw] @ucfagls University of Regina Regina, SK S4S 0A2, Canada ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
