Figure 5.
The relationship between predator density and mean fry telomere length in (A) the harsh stream and (B) the benign stream. Predator density categorized for clarity of presentation, but treated as a continuous variable in the analysis. Definitions of predator density: ABSENT = 0, LOW = below the mean salmonid parr density (parr/m2), HIGH = above the mean parr density (calculated separately for each stream).
