Statistical analyses
To investigate whether infection status varied across nests we used a
General Linear Model (GLM) with a binomial distribution within the R
statistical software (RStudio Team; 2020). To investigate hatching
success (hereafter hatchability) according to fusariosis symptom status,
we performed a Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) with a binomial
distribution using the R package “lme4”
(Bates et al., 2015).
To control for pseudo-replication, we entered nest ID as a random
factor.
