Standardized directional selection differentials (S) and gradients (β) on traits measured in a field population (SJM) of Mimulus guttatus in Lassen National Forest, Butte County, California, USA
Trait | n | S (s.e.) | β (s.e.) |
---|---|---|---|
Flower size | 49 | 0·91 (0·31)*** | 0·98 (0·42)** |
Anther–stigma separation | 50 | −0·15 (0·35) | 0·17 (0·36) |
Julian date of first flower (JDFF) | 59 | −0·84 (0·27)** | −0·02 (0·01)* |
% | 18 | 1·40 (0·61)** | – |
δ13C | 17 | −0·58 (0·73) | – |
Biomass | 64 | 0·60 (0·26)† | 0·10 (0·37) |
Fitness was estimated as lifetime seed production. Gradients were not estimated for %N and δ13C due to small sample sizes.
†P < 0·1 *P < 0·05; **P < 0·01; ***P < 0·001.
