Pairwise correlations between phenotypic traits.

<p>Scatter plots indicating the degree of correlation between traits (below diagonal) and pairwise Pearson's correlation R values (above diagonal). Pearson’s correlation coefficients were calculated from averaged data from each strain for sporulation capacity, spore size and hyphal growth. Statistical significant correlation coefficients are indicated as following: ** P-value < 0.01 and *** P-value < 0.001. Calculations were performed for domestic (A panel) and wild (B panel) populations, respectively.</p

Quantitative distribution of life history trait variables.

<p>Distribution of quantitative variables: hyphal growth 24 days after deposits on agar (cm), germination rate (in logit units), sporulation capacity (in Log₁₀ units), and spore size (μm). Blue histograms correspond to the wild population and green ones correspond to the domestic population.</p

Quantitative distribution of life history trait variables between wild (blue) and domestic population (green).

<p>The horizontal line in boxplots represents the median. A significant difference between populations is observed for the sporulation capacity and spore size. Sporulation average in wild population: 122,400 spores mL^-1; and in domestic population: 199,955 spores mL^-1. Spore size average is 9.2 μm in the wild population and is 9.5 μm in the domestic population.</p
