Title: Laidlaw_limits.csv
Description: Data for the knockdown times (in minutes) for male and female Daphnia exposed to a 37°C static heat shock. Listed are each individual ID (indv_id), the sex of the host (sex, M = Male or F = Female), the host genotype (host, H2 = HU-HO2 or M1 = BE-OMZ-M10), the pathogen genotype or treatment (pathogen, C1, C14, C20 or CTRL = Unexposed Controls), and the knockdown times (death_time_min).
Title: Laidlaw_spores_reg.csv
Description: Data for estimating the partial effects of spore loads and relative body size on the change in knockdown times of infected animals. Relative measures of upper thermal limits and body size were calculated by subtracting the corresponding control group means from each individual observation (i.e., sex- and genotype-matched). Listed are each individual ID (indv_id), the sex of the host (sex, M = Male or F = Female), the host genotype (host, H2 = HU-HO2 or M1 = BE-OMZ-M10), the pathogen genotype (pathogen, C1, C14, C20), time to death relative to unexposed controls (rel_death_time), body size relative to unexposed controls (rel_size) and log10 of spore loads (log_spores).
