  1. r = The intrinsic rate of increase (per day); ʎ = The finite rate of increase (per day);
  2. r = intrinsic rate of growth; R0 = The net reproductive rate (offspring/individual); T = The mean generation time (days), λ = limiting rate of growth.
  3. Means in the same row followed by the same letter are not significantly different (P > 0.05) using bootstrap test.
