Table 2.

Estimates of the means and standard errors (SE), genetic variation (VG), environmental variation (VE), broad-sense heritability (H2), and coefficient of genetic variation (CVG) for infliction of necrotic rings and wilting on tomato leaves, and zoophagy (i.e., consumption of E. kuehniella eggs in 24 h) by N. tenuis. Estimates are based on the squared-root-transformed data for necrotic rings and zoophagy, and arcsine-transformed data for wilting.

Parameter n Mean ± SE * VG VE H 2 CVG (%)
Necrotic rings 240 1.177 ± 0.044 0.070 0.444 0.16 22.54
Wilting 240 1.254 ± 0.032 0.039 0.217 0.18 15.77
Zoophagy 193 7.961 ± 0.131 1.190 3.231 0.37 13.70

* Units: necrotic rings (number on leaves), wilting (percentage of leaf surface), and zoophagy (eggs of E. kuehniella consumed).
