A summary table of the final GLMM for total (tGSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) measured in great tit whole blood. Among the single parameters, breeding density, age, clutch size, date, date2, and body condition had a P > 0.1, thus eliminated from the tGSH model. For GSSG, all except spring date were removed (see more statistical details in Material and Methods section).
