Table 1. Factors affecting the rates of change of genetic and phenotypic variance during the first 250-generations in a constantly-fluctuating environment.
Response | Predictor | % Var. | P-value |
Variable | Explained | ||
dVP/dt | Network Size | 57 | <2.2e−16 |
dE/dt | 8 | <2.2e−16 | |
n * dE/dt | 4 | 2.29e−7 | |
dVG/dt | Network Size | 16 | <2.2e−16 |
dE/dt | 2 | 0.013 | |
n * dE/dt | 7 | 0.0001 |
dVP/dt is the rate of change of phenotypic variance; dVG/dt is the rate of change of genetic variance. n refers to network size; dE/dt is the rate of environmental change.
