Table 2.
Multiple regression of flea beetle feeding residual (BFR) corrected for trials against the sum concentration of four structural groups of pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs, µg/g dw) in the 84 F2 hybrid genotypes from a cross between Jacobaea vulgaris and Jacobaea aquatica. For the regression model: adjusted R 2 = 0.2425; F 15, 68 = 2.771; P = 0.002
| Predictorsa | Estimate | t value |
|---|---|---|
| (Intercept) | −5.773 | −1.112 |
| Fw | 11.680 | 3.706** |
| Sn | 0.234 | 0.162 |
| Jb | −0.117 | −0.126 |
| Er | 0.276 | 0.180 |
| Ot | 0.492 | 0.771 |
**P < 0.01
aSn, Jb, Er, Ot are log transformed concentration of senecionine-, jacobine-, erucifoline-, and otosenine- like PAs. Fw is the genotypic mean of leaf fresh weight
