Fig. 7

Heritability of shell morphology as inferred from regressions of mid-parents versus offspring. The axes of nmMDS were used as proxy for shell morphology, each of which represents a module of which shape variation is illustrated in Additional file 1: Figure S2. Individual points represent randomly constructed associations of mid-parents and offspring for a single morphospecies in a single bootstrap replicate. Each point represents thus either an association of wild-caught parents and F1 offspring or F1 parents and F2 offspring. The regression represents the summary statistics from 10,000 bootstraps on parent-offspring associations, with the mean in black and the 95% confidence interval in grey
