Multiple regression models describing the relationship between the C–S–R dimensions and the parameters: total dry mass of plant (TDM), flowering start under laboratory conditions (FlL), rosette diameter (RD) and the number of seeds per plant (Seeds)
| C dimension | S dimension | R dimension | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Equation | = –2·048 + 1·163 × TDM – 0·002 × FlL + 0·0016 × RD – 0·002 × Seeds | = 0·135 – 0·852 × TDM – 0·040 × FlL + 0·042 × RD – 0·021 × Seeds | = –2·324 – 0·338 × TDM + 0·026 × FlL – 0·035 × RD + 0·025 × Seeds |
| Fit of model | R2 = 0·86, P = 0·001 | R2 = 0·53, P = 0·108 | R2 = 0·60, P = 0·062 |
| Total dry mass of plant (TDM; g) | P = 0·002 | P = 0·875 | P = 0·943 |
| Flowering start lab (FlL; days) | P = 0·036 | P = 0·030 | P = 0·087 |
| Rosette diameter (RD; mm) | P = 0·457 | P = 0·319 | P = 0·342 |
| No. of seeds (Seeds) | P = 0·001 | P = 0·038 | P = 0·011 |
P-values for variables that contribute significantly to the regression models are highlighted in bold font.
