Divergent Selection and Then What Not: The Conundrum of Missing Reproductive Isolation in Misty Lake and Stream Stickleback

Table 3

Ecotype main effect LS means ± S.E. and covariate slopes ± S.E. for head up, nest inspection, and nest entry in the Misty Lake (L), Inlet (I), and Outlet (O) three spine stickleback. The values are from final (reduced) covariate models in Table 1. For covariate effects, common slopes are given when there was no significant female trait interaction, whereas female ecotype specific slopes are given when these interactions were at least nearly significant. Models refer to models with (a) display and RSD, (b) display and ASD, (c) aggression and RSD, or (d) aggression and ASD as covariates in initial full model, with results of Tukey adjusted pairwise comparisons given below.
