Correlations between traits of three-year-old <i>U. europaeus</i> individuals grown in a common garden.

<p>(A) correlations between infestation rate and three life history traits, (B) correlations among the three life history traits. Each point represents the Spearman's correlation coefficient for a given region. White symbols represent native regions, black symbols represent invaded regions. Measures were done as in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0026275#pone-0026275-t003" target="_blank">Table 3</a>. For each pairwise correlation, untested life history traits were used as covariables. N = 24 to 28. Dashed lines represent the 0.05 significance threshold (10⁻² significant threshold is ±0.53, 10⁻³ significant threshold is ±0.66).</p
