Data and analysis of "Developmental plasticity and the evolutionary rescue of a colonising mite"

The excel file contain the raw data in three sheets. THe first sheet contains the overall demographic data we gathered, used to analyse total population size; the second sheet contains the data to analyse srambler arrival day; the third sheet contains the weekly population growth rate. The r-script files import the raw data and contain code to run the analyses and create figures. The fourth sheet in the Excel file contains the metadata on the explanatory and response variables of the analyses.Per capita first day of scrambler expression.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on the first since the experiment started, expressed per total population size (so per capita first scrambler expression), that we first observed a scrambler in a population.First scrambler expression.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on the day since the experiment started that we first observed a scrambler in a population.Population growth.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on population growth quantified as the total population size at week t+1 divided over total population size at week t. .Proportion scramblers.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on the proportion of males that are scramblers.Total population size.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on total population size. Adult population size.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on total adult number. Fecundity.R imports the raw data from Raw data.xlsx to analyse treatment effects of the experiment on the number of eggs produced per female.Testing different time periods.R checks to see if testing for time effects using (1) Week as continuous factor, (2) total time period binned in 7 time intervals and (3), total time period binned in 4 time intervals had any qualitatively different result on scrambler expression. There were no qualitative differences.Number of fighters and scramblers plotted over time.R plots the mean number of fighters and scramblers over time for each treatment combination of environmental quality and founder population size.
