Mimulus cardinalis data from artificial selection experiment

This data file includes flowering time, specific leaf area, leaf nitrogen content, relative growth rate, and carbon isotope ratio for each Mimulus cardinalis individual in experiment (see publication for further details).

Column names are as follows:

Generation: year in which artificial selection was performed; parental generation (2012); 1 generation of selection (2013); 2 generations of selection (2014)

Region: range position from which populations originate; northern edge (N), latitudinal range centre (C), or southern edge (S)

Population: location from which individuals were collected (see Fig. 1 and Table 1 in publication)

Line: artificial selection line; early flowering (early); unselected (control); late flowering (late)

Population.Line: selection line nested within population

Par1: identity of parent 1 of each individual in 2013 and 2014 generations; used in calculations of weighted selection differentials

Par2: identity of parent 2 of each individual in 2013 and 2014 generations; used in calculations of weighted selection differentials

Family: full-sibling seed family

Replicate: replicates of each full-sibling seed family; only relevant in 2013 and 2014 generations

Family.Replicate: replicate nested within full-sibling seed family; only relevant in 2013 and 2014 generations

FloweringTime: number of days from germination to first flower

SLA: specific leaf area (mm2/mg); only measured in 2014 generation

percent.N: percent leaf nitrogen content; only measured in 2014 generation on a subset of individuals

RGR: relative growth rate in early seedling stem length (cm cm-1 day-1); only measured in 2014 generation

delta.13C: carbon isotope ratio (δ13C); only measured in 2014 generation on a subset of individuals
