Table 2.
Heritability estimates for each heat shock gene within each treatment (ΔCq) and across treatments (ΔΔCq). Heritability values are listed with ±s.e.; all are narrow-sense heritabilities, with the exception of values denoted with a superscript, which are broad-sense heritabilities.
hsp60 | hsp70 | hsp90 | |
---|---|---|---|
ΔCq 29°C | 0.51 ± 0.11a | 0.88 ± 0.23 | 0.32 ± 0.12a |
ΔCq 36°C | 0.79 ± 0.28 | 0.75 ± 0.27 | 0.21 ± 0.13a |
ΔΔCq | 0.38 ± 0.21 | 0.20 ± 0.10 | 0.37 ± 0.10a |
aBroad sense heritability (i.e. ‘dam’) was the only pedigree factor included in the best fitting model. Significance of heritability estimates determined using REML likelihood-ratio tests [42] are shown in bold.
