Each column represents a single model, each row represents a model covariate. Each cell contains the covariate estimate and P value. Cells containing NA represent covariates that were not included in the model. Comparison levels for factors are given in brackets. Hp stands for H. polygyrus, Eh stands for E. hungaryensis.
