Pied flycatcher data for the paper 'Environmental coupling of heritability and selection is rare and of minor evolutionary significance in wild populations', by Jip JC Ramakers, Antica Culina, Marcel E Visser & Phillip Gienapp (Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2018) ## These files contain the phenotypes (laydates) for Pied flycatchers at the Hoge Veluwe (NL). ## Note that individual IDs between the two files are interchangeable, but the IDs cannot be linked to other datasets. 'Pedigree_flycatchers.txt': pedigree file with animal, dam, and sire. 'Flycatcher_LD_file.txt': phenotype file. BroodYear: year of breeding FemaleID: identity of female Recruits: number of recruits produced by the female that year AgeClass: young, old, or unknown age LayDate: date when first egg is laid av.LD: mean laydate of the population that year av.LDst: av.LD standardized LDresidblock: environmental blocks for residual structure in Random Regression models
