Appendix D. Results of four-factor ANOVA on a data subset from field surveys examining effects of month, site, edge, sex, and all possible interactions on gonadosomatic index and carotenoid content.
TABLE D1. Results of four-factor ANOVA on a data subset from field surveys examining effects of month, site, edge, sex, and all possible interactions on gonadosomatic index and carotenoid content. Both responses were ln-transformed to improve normality. All values with P < 0.05 are in boldface.
