  1. LME conditional model average for effects of male urine composition, age, mass, and social status during enclosures on RS (natural log transformed (1 + no. of offspring)). Table rows are ordered by predictor importance based on the sum of weights. Significant predictors are italicized. PC ratio omitted due to high VIF value suggesting collinearity (see Supplementary Table S1 for full model).
