ANCOVA summary of effects of populations, cross and family on two measures of resistance to snail herbivory (1-proportion of leaf damaged; snail performance) in our snail herbivory experiment with plants resulting from two generations of within- and between-population crosses of plants from 13 populations of Lychnis flos-cuculi.
