From: Haploid females in the isomorphic biphasic life-cycle of Gracilaria chilensis excel in survival
General dynamics of the age, size and density-dependent survival (φ) of G. chilensis individuals with fronds. Each panel (a, b and c) corresponds to a range of algal stand density (V). The φ is shown in the left y-axis and its corresponding finite survival rate (s) in the right y- axis. Individuals grouped according to their ages as < 8 month (young) or > 8 month (old). Frond volume (v) given in cm3. The line-fits with poor non-linear correlation coefficients (R2 < 0.5) were replaced by their group mean
