Figure Lengend Snippet: Analysis of parasite size and reproductive parameters according to parasite species, fish species, their interaction, population, and, for parasite size, Pomphorhynchus load (the number of parasites per individual fish) and sex, and for reproductive parameters parasite size (a) Parasite size, and male testes volume; (b) female reproductive parameters, represented by the two first PCA axis (main contributing variable provided; see Fig. S3b ). Infection type refers to monospecific or heterospecific infection with respect to Pomphorhynchus species.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Correlation plot showing only significant relationships among the analyzed variables, with p-values < 0.01. Correlations are represented with a color scale ranging from blue (strong positive correlations) to red (strong negative correlations). Red labels represent phenological variables, while green labels correspond to morphological variables. Pearson’s r coefficients are displayed in bold inside the plot. Non-significant correlations (p ≥ 0.01) are excluded from the plot. SP = seed production; F1 , F2 and F5 = pheno-phases of the reproductive cycle in days from the 1 st of July; RC = duration of the reproductive cycle; V = estimated crown volume and T = tiller production. GS = growing season.

Article Snippet: We calculated the 95% confidence intervals for these distributions using the ‘quantile’ (Type-8) function in RStudio ; this quantile type is approximately median unbiased, regardless of the variable’s distribution .

Figure Lengend Snippet: Q ST Distributions and confidence intervals for F. pallescens traits. Each plot shows a simulated Q ST distribution with a 95% confidence interval (blue dotted line) and observed Q ST (red dotted line) for all variables measured on the half-sib trial of F. pallescens . SP = seed production; F1 , F2 and F5 = pheno-phases of the reproductive cycle; RC = duration of the reproductive cycle; V = estimated crown volume and T = tiller production. Only the first year of measurements is shown, following years behaved similarly.
