The role of indirect genetic effects in the evolution of interacting reproductive behaviors in the burying beetle, <i>Nicrophorus vespilloides</i>.

Although comparison of the model to a reduced formulation with a single homogeneous residual variance assumed suggests the inflation of residual variance in the presence of a competitor is marginally nonsignificant ( χ 1 2 = 3.002, p = 0.082), an increase in overall phenotypic variance (conditional on fixed effects) in Context 2 relative to 1 is statistically significant ( χ 1 2 = 6.904, p = 0.009).
