Table 1.

For each trait on the three diets is given the proportions of total phenotypic variance associated with the standard set of covariates, additive effects of genes (h2), and the residual.*

Covariate effects were estimated using the raw untransformed traits and, as described in the Methods section, the residual was normalized and standardized prior to conducting quantitative genetic analysis to estimate the heritability; the proportions are scaled to total phenotypic variance.
