Table 1. Summary of the results of linear mixed models assessing the effect of sapling height (H), mother tree identity (MT), genetic diversity (GD) and genetic relatedness (GR) between oak saplings and their interactions on herbivory by ectophagous insects and on abundance of endophagous insects (leaf-miners).

Results are given from LMM and Poisson GLMM for ectophagous and endophagous herbivores respectively.
df degrees of freedom (numerator, denominator).
Log-likelihood R2 were not estimated in case of significant H × GR and H × GD interactions.
