From: Genetic covariance between indices of body condition and immunocompetence in a passerine bird
Observed component (yi) | Method and types of relatives used to obtain component | Immune response | Body condition | Covariance |
---|---|---|---|---|
y1 | covariance between sire and offspring | 0.003 | 0.106 | 0.019 |
y2 | covariance between nurse and offspring where the nurse is not the genetic dam | 0.002 | -0.122 | -0.013 |
y3 | covariance between dam and offspring where the offspring was nursed by an unrelated dam | 0.01 | 0.119 | 0.002 |
y4 | covariance between dam and offspring, where the dam is also the nurse. | 0.006 | 0.022 | 0.022 |
y5 | covariance between full sibs raised by different nurses | 0.010 | 0.328 | 0.025 |
y6 | covariance between unrelated sibs where the offspring were nursed by an unrelated dam | 0.225 | 0.179 | 0.066 |
y7 | covariance between full sibs raised by different nurses | 0.002 | 0.239 | -0.002 |
y8 | covariance between unrelated sibs raised the same nurse | 0.002 | 0.076 | 0.012 |
Y9 | covariance between unrelated sibs, each nursed by the genetic dam of the other | -0.215 | 0.149 | -0.042 |
Y10 | variance among full sibs all with the same nurse | 0.031 | 0.609 | 0.011 |
