Table 1. Model selection results for 2011.

Variable Relative variable weight Estimate from top model (lower/upper CI) Estimate from model average (lower/upper CI)
A. mellifera 1.0 29.56 (15.84/43.28)* 27.79 (14.21/41.38)*
P. pruinosa 0.64 2.78 (−0.11/5.67) 2.72 (−0.08/5.51)
B. impatiens 0.15 −4.82 (−49.17/39.52)
Field size 0.14 0.0003 (−0.11/0.11)
Treatment 0.03 A. mellifera supplemented: −0.28 (−2.59/2.04)
B. impatiens supplemented: 1.28 (−1.12/3.77)

Relative variable importance weights and parameter estimates with 95% confidence intervals for all variables from models predicting pumpkin yield in 2011. Significant factors are denoted with * (P<0.05). Variables included: bee visitation frequency to pumpkin flowers (Apis mellifera, Peponapis pruinosa, and Bombus impatiens), field size, and supplementation treatment (B. impatiens supplemented, A. mellifera supplemented and nonsupplemented).
