  1. Variances of the parameters for each of the food treatments are shown on the diagonals (shaded), covariances below diagonal (in italics), and correlations above. All SEs are shown in brackets. V A additive genetic variance, V M maternal effects variance, V B block variance (only fitted for female age at maturity due to lack of convergence for male size at maturity), V R residual variance. Trait values were standardised to unit variance prior to analyses (see Methods for details).
