Degrees of freedom (df), log-Likelihood (log(L)), AICc, ΔAICc (AICc_model − AICc_{min model}), and AICc w (AICc weight) for each linear model in the conversion analysis ordered in descending fit (best-fitting model at the top)

Model description: Log10 (Conversion) ~	df	log(L)	AICc	ΔAICc	AICc w
Donor photoschedule	3	− 1.704	11.41	0.000	0.688
Donor photoschedule + parasite schedule	4	− 1.061	13.76	2.351	0.212
Null	2	− 5.764	16.45	5.044	0.055
Donor photoschedule + parasite schedule + donor photoschedule*parasite schedule	5	− 1.037	18.07	6.667	0.025
Schedule	3	− 5.259	18.52	7.110	0.020

The response variable for each model is the log₁₀-transformed conversion rate. “Parasite schedule” refers to parasites either in-synch or out-of-synch with the host, and “donor photoschedule” corresponds to parasites taken from donor mice kept in either the standard or reversed light:dark schedule. The null model includes only “mouse” as a random effect
