Summary of contrasts for all growth variables measured in the field. When significant, the lineage in bold had the larger value for that given measurement. The estimate describes the difference in each trait between lineages. Significance was evaluated at the P = 0.05 level
Measurement | Contrast | Estimate | P-value |
---|---|---|---|
Logit(Percent of Littoral Zone Occupied) | Hybrid vs ACP | 0.662 | 0.225 |
Hybrid vs Continental | −0.587 | 0.280 | |
ln(Biomass) | Hybrid vs ACP | −0.002 | 0.993 |
Hybrid vs Continental | 0.599 | 0.002 | |
ln(Density) | Hybrid vs ACP | 0.073 | 0.589 |
Hybrid vs Continental | −0.458 | 0.001 | |
ln(Individual Dry Mass) | Hybrid vs ACP | −0.258 | 0.09 |
Hybrid vs Continental | 1.052 | <0.001 | |
ln(Branching Rate per Unit Dry Mass) | Hybrid vs ACP | 0.246 | 0.006 |
Hybrid vs Continental | −0.143 | 0.435 |
The bolded lineage displayed higher values for the given trait in a significant contrast.
