Patterns of annual and seasonal immune investment in a temporal reproductive opportunist.

Results (a) Patterns of variation across cone years (summers 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013) LMs predicting variation in immune parameters across the summer of multiple cone years were highly significant ( p < 0.001): for complement (lysis), natural antibodies (agglut.), PIT54, leucocytes/erythrocytes (WBC), lymphocytes (lymp.) and monocytes (mono.), adjusted R 2 ranged from approximately 0.082 (PIT54) to 0.32 (lysis) ( table 1 ).

Flight feather moult (Ff), plumage moult intensity (body.molt) and reproductive measures (CP/BP) were all selected by RFMs for further consideration (electronic supplementary material, figure S1), yet of these, only flight feather moult displayed a marginally significant, positive relationship with complement (electronic supplementary material, table S6).
