Table 6.

Results of generalized linear regression models for the main effect of sub-stage and PFAA and interaction terms. The main effect beta value represents the change in PFAA with one increase sub-stage development. The p-values determine whether the associated beta value represents a significant or non-significant change in PFAA with progressing egg development (sub-stage). Interaction term beta values determine the estimated change in PFAA by sub-stage based on the length or weight of the fish and can be used to calculate the change in various length or weight fish for each PFAA. Interaction term p-values determine if total length (Model 1) or Fish Weight (Model 2) beta values significantly affect the relationship between PFAA and sub-stage of development. Non-significant interaction terms were not included in the table.

We present model results with the interaction term if it was significant at p < 0.10. If not, we present the model results controlling for total length or fish weight, but not including the interaction term.
