Partitioning of the variation of survival ratios of <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> as a function of contextual variables.

aN is the number of explanatory variables retained after selecting the most parsimonious explanatory variables (by minimizing the Akaike Information Criterion). bthe % explained variance corresponds to the adjusted R2 values of the overall model using partial redundancy analysis. NSNon Significant, °p<0.1, *p<0.05, **p<0.01 and ***p<0.001. Note that the covariation between the contextual variables is not reported in this table, therefore summing over the different contextual variables does not give the % explained variance of the overall model. - Soil texture do not explain any variance of the survival ratio of L. monocytogenes at day 14.
