Table 1. Bayesian mixed-effects regression results showing effects (median coefficient and 95% credible intervals) of both resource limitation and exploitation competition treatments on Ae. camptorhynchus larval development time (in days) between instar, pupae and total developmental time to adulthood, the effect of treatment on survival and the effect of both treatment and sex on adult wing length (mm) for both resource limitation and competition experiments. Significant p values are in bold.
