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.
