↵* β and SE, regression coefficient for 1 unit change and associated SE.
↵† LR (df), likelihood ratio test statistic (equivalent to χ2) with degrees of freedom and associated p value.
↵‡ AIC, Akaike Information Criterion (smaller values indicate better fit).
↵§ Fibre length and diameter fit in separate models.
↵¶ Fibre length and diameter fit simultaneously.
