Table 1 Analysis of variance for sum of ovarioles from both ovaries (parents taken directly from selection regime). Comparison of selected vs. control lines when the dams of daughters for ovariole number determination was directly from the selected and control lines. Treatment refers to starved or unstarved mothers ("dams" as described in the Ovariole number section of the Methods or Results). Analysis uses a two way mixed model ANOVA, with Linetype (selected vs. control) and Treatment (starved or not starved) as fixed main effects. Linetype *Treatment is also fixed. Line refers to the five replicate lines in each linetype. Line is nested within Linetype and is random. Line (line type) refers to variation within selected or control lines. * =P ≤ 0.05; ** =P < 0.01; *** =P < 0.001
