<p>Bivariate reaction norms (grey lines) and 90% concentration ellipses for period P1 (open circles) and P2 (filled circles). (a) Egg size and clutch size. (b) Clutch size and reproductive investment. (c) Egg size and reproductive investment. Only data from period P2 have been plotted for clones BV and HA because these clones laid too few eggs in period P1. The measurements are standardized for a 1.6 mm long female.</p
