ANCOVA summary of effects of pollination treatment (autonomous self-pollination vs. hand cross-pollination) and site (La Parva and Piedra Numerada) on the percentage of achene set and achene weight of Chaetanthera renifolia plants. Plant size (diameter) was entered as a covariate. Significant effects are indicated in bold.
