Table 3 Model estimates and goodness of fit (R2c and R2m) of the best genetic model for model sets (i) testing the effects of sMLH and DRB1 heterozygosity status (HDRB), (ii) testing the effects of sMLH and the presence of specific DRB1 alleles and (iii) testing the effects of MLH and DRB1genotypes (G_DRB1) on FEC

From: Both candidate gene and neutral genetic diversity correlate with parasite resistance in female Mediterranean mouflon

  1. sMLH is the standardized multilocus heterozygosity. Non-genetic terms were retained in the first step of the modeling approach (see main text). P-values are coded by asterisks: “***” for p < 0.001, “**” for p < 0.01, “*” for p < 0.05
