Abbreviations: BS, body size; C, constant; DS, desiccation tolerance; DT, developmental time; KD, time to heat knockdown; PF, predictable fluctuating; PR, productivity; RT, chill coma recovery time; ST, starvation tolerance; UF, unpredictable fluctuating.
Rows represent selection regimes, whereas columns represent test regimes. In each matrix, the upper triangle shows the correlation coefficients, whereas the relative P-values are reported in the lower triangle.
^aSignificant P-values after multiple testing corrections.
