Fig. 6From: Time budget, oxygen consumption and body mass responses to parasites in juvenile and adult wild rodentsThe best path analysis models explaining the different pathways of flea effects on hosts. The three best path analysis models describing the most important direct and/or indirect pathways of flea effects on the physiology and behavior of juvenile (a) and adult (b & c) Meriones crassus. Arrows represent direct and indirect influences. Numbers on the arrows are standardized path coefficients, representing the relative strength of the given effect (β/SE), which is also reflected by the arrow widthBack to article page
