Means for each character in the control and MA lines per generation rates of decline in mean phenotype (Rm) observed for the MA lines, Rm standardized by the control mean (% change), and mutational heritabilities (h2m), with one standard error in parentheses. Estimates for the life-history and body size traits are provided for comparison and are described in Estes et al. (2005)(accompanying article).
