Table 1.

Output of LMs showing effect sizes of blood parasite infection parameters on body condition (models a and b) and phenotype (i.e., degree of melanism) on infection intensity (model c)

Fixed effect df Estimate SE χ2 Pr(>χ2)
Model a: body mass ~ infection intensity + tarsus length + phenotype, n = 162

  Infection intensity 1 −0.336 0.072 13.338 < 0.001
  Tarsus length 1 0.523 0.066 38.972 < 0.001
  Phenotype 1 0.021 0.065 0.066 0.743
Model b: body mass ~ co-infection + tarsus length + phenotype, n = 125
  Intercept 1 0.269 0.687 0.070 0.697
  Co-infection: 1 Haemoproteus spp. lineage 3 −0.150 0.684 0.228 0.918
