Abstract
Usage notes
Density and size-selection life-history data
Data in the two csv files were collected from individual Daphnia following the selection experiment. The column header abbreviations follow. ID (identification of an idividual), density (high (H) or low (L) density treated), selection (randomly culled (R) or size-selectively culled (S)), block (indicator of block), Am (age at maturity), max (estimated maximum size), growth (estimated growth rate measure), totegg_30 (total reproductive output up to day 30), size_mat (size at maturity), growth_i (size at first measurement), growth_f (size at third measurement), growth_rt (an alternate measure of growth, equal to mm grown per day), max_obs (max observed size).

Variance within lines data
Average and standard errors for five life-history traits (age at maturity, size at maturity, estimated maximum size, days to half-maximum size, and total reproductive output up to day 30) for each of eight clonal lines.
