Fig. 4: Phenotypic variance in weight, femur–SVL ratio, and time to metamorphosis appears driven by natural selection from ecological forces rather than isolation by distance when wood frogs are reared at low-density but not high-density, whereas variation in larval growth rate appears conserved across populations.

Points are pairwise QST–FST values, calculated using fitted partial regression means adjusted for covariance in average temperature, and lines represent linear regressions, compared at low-density (filled points, solid lines) and high-density (open points, dashed lines). Red horizontal lines indicate at or below which phenotypic variance is not due to natural selection (QST = FST).
