Fig. 2.
Principal component analysis of coral performance following 3 (A–C) and 6 mo (D–F) of transplantation. Polygons outline the ordination groups, with Inner Lagoon in orange and Outer Lagoon in blue, whereas vectors in A and D indicate the loadings of the phenotypic variables to the PCs, with length of arrow signifying strength of loading. Plasticity, calculated as the distance in principal component space between each genet’s native phenotype (filled symbols) versus cross-transplanted phenotype (open symbols), are indicated by lines in B and E. The boxplots and data points for plasticity values of each species are shown in C and F.
