Figure 3. Comparison of physiological performance (mean±s.e.m.) in response to thermal-stress anomalies and the maximum temperatures.
(a,b) Illustration of Scytothalia growth rates from September 2012–May 2013, in response to stress anomalies and the maximum temperatures, respectively. (c,d) Illustration of the proportion of individuals with receptacles at the onset of the reproductive season. (e,f) Illustration of the proportion of thallus area without visible putative disease symptoms. Significant linear models are marked with a regression line (solid) and 95% confidence intervals (dashed). Models are based on n=75 replicates for a,b and n=15 replicates for c–f. The shape and colour of points represents the five experimental treatments.
