Table 4. Results of linear regressions testing for a relationship between the number of domatia a plant has and the number of queens counted in that a plant.
Ant species | Host plant | df | SS | SS | F value | P value | R2 | Regression equation | |
(regression) | (residual) | ||||||||
Crematogaster laevis | Maieta guianensis | 1,10 | 18.43 | 2.57 | 71.651 | <0.0001 | 0.88 | ||
Pheidole minutula | Maieta guianensis | 1,35 | 228.54 | 40.46 | 197.72 | <0.0001 | 0.85 | ||
Azteca sp. | Tococa bullifera | 1,8 | 30.91 | 3.09 | 80.09 | <0.0001 | 0.91 | ||
Crematogaster laevis | Tococa bullifera | 1,8 | 120.26 | 94.72 | 10.16 | 0.013 | 0.56 |
Note that the intercept of all three regressions is zero because queens are only found in plants with at least one domatium.
