Figure 3: Parasite richness (number of different parasite targets
detected in each sample) as a function of (a) floral resource abundance
in B. pascuorum and (b) Distance from honeybee hives in B.
terrestris . The black line and gray areas indicate the relationship
and its confidence intervals (α = 95%) estimated through Generalized
Linear mixed models.
Table 3: Output of Generalized Linear mixed models of Parasite richness
and Probability of infection as a function of the candidate covariates
supposed to shape parasite detection. Final models were obtained through
backward stepwise selection using AIC criterion. Differences in the AIC
values between full and final models are reported in ΔAIC. Statistical
details refer to the final models and are regression coefficient (βi),
chi-square values (χ2), degrees of freedom (df). Significant p-values
are reported in bold.
