P values < 0.05 (*) and < 0.01 (**) indicate statistical significance.

aλ value indicates phylogenetic effect.

bSignificance of log-likelihood ratios for λ against models with λ = 0 and λ = 1 are shown. Statistically significant values are shown in bold.

cEffect size (ES) calculated from the F-values.

dNoncentral 95% confidence limits (CL). Confidence intervals excluding 0 indicate statistically significant relationships and are shown in bold.
