  1. All models have a binomial errors structure but differ in the scale of the explanatory variable (CONC., i.e. ammonia concentration, linear vs. log-transformed), or the link function of the linear predictor (logit vs. probit vs. complementary log-log). The minimal adequate model for each taxon, i.e. that having the lowest AIC, is shown in bold.
