Fig. 8

Varying the genetic architecture of the loci controlling beak size alters the intensity of split of the population. a shows the intensities of split at different values of strengths of disruptive selection. b is a table that is drawn after doing pairwise comparisons using Welch t test. A block is blue if IoS (row condition) >IoS (column condition), red block if IoS (row condition) <IoS (column condition), and yellow if IoS (row condition) = IoS (column condition). low_DS, int_DS, and high_DS correspond to the low, intermediate, and high strengths of disruptive selection, respectively. The error bars indicate means ± standard deviations.
