Fig. 4: Bivariate ordinations of log absolute difference between males and females for allometric variables.

Plots show biological traits collated into nine functional groups (i.e., trait types, represented as different circle colours). Individual effect sizes (circles) are scaled by their sample size (N), the number of mice included per trait. a Relationship between allometric intercept and residual SD. b Relationship between allometric slope and residual SD. c Relationship between allometric slope and intercept.
