These data were used to generate the results in Wyman and Rowe (2014) Male-bias in distributions of additive genetic, residual, and phenotypic variances of shared traits. Please refer to the publication for additional details. Description of the columns in WymanAndRowe2014_Dryad.txt: cite.code = publications containing the original data species = scientific species name trait = trait names organismType = broad taxonomic groups traitType = trait groups matingRelated = Is the trait related to mating? matingSystem = dioecious or gynodioecious heterogamety = sex chromosome system m.mean = mean trait value in males f.mean = mean trait value in females mf.meanRatio = m.mean/f.mean m.Va = mean additive genetic variance in males f.Va = mean additive genetic variance in females mf.VaRatio = m.Va/f.Va m.h2 = mean narrow sense heritability in males f.h2 = mean narrow sense heritability in females h2.diff = m.h2 - f.h2 m.CVa = mean coefficient of additive genetic variance in males f.CVa = mean coefficient of additive genetic variance in females CVa.diff = m.CVa - f.CVa m.CVnonadd = mean coefficient of nonadditive (residual) variance in males f.CVnonadd = mean coefficient of nonadditive (residual) variance in females CVnonadd.diff = m.CVnonadd - f.CVnonadd m.CVp = mean coefficient of phenotypic variance in males f.CVp = mean coefficient of phenotypic variance in females CVp.diff = m.CVp - f.CVp
