Table 1.
Analyses of variance on traits (A) and fitness components (B) measured on experimental Oxalis montana individuals from three different elevations of origin transplanted to each of three elevations, within two different transects. The table shows degrees of freedom (df), mean squares (MS), and F‐ratios for quantitative continuous variables (all traits and biomass) and degrees of freedom and chi‐square statistics (Chisq) for the binary variable (survival). Degrees of freedom for continuous variables were approximated with the Satterthwaite method implemented in R package lmerTest. Significance is indicated as the following: *p < .05, **p < .01, ***p < 0.001
