  1. The magnitude of the coefficient represents the degree of influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable. “Shared” represents the interaction between geography and phylogeny. The 'Pr ( >| t |)' column shows the significance of the coefficient inferred using the glm function in R. The * symbol indicates that the coefficient was larger than 95% of the null cases from 500 random interaction matrices
