Values of heritability range between zero and one.
We used two values of heritability: 0.1 and 0.5.
Values of heritability of around 0.4 have been reported for similar traits in insects [30] but we have no such estimates for P. vulgatissima.
The only exception may be for extremely high values of heritability.
However, as shown in Table 1, heterogeneous values of heritability and genetic correlation were found.
The values of heritability for both traits were low (<40 %; Table 5).

Thus, regarding the calling behaviour of male crickets, if every male fed well, thereby eliminating several environmental influences on calling, the numerical value of heritability would be considerably higher.
For example, the mean value of heritability for morphological traits, such as body and wing length, is 0.46; for life history traits, such as fecundity and life span, is 0.26; and for behavioral traits, such as calling duration and fighting stamina, is 0.30.
In principle, the ad hoc method may approximate the true value of heritability but making the unrealistic assumption of uncorrelated genotypes [ 23].
Hence, when the population value of heritability is small, its sampling variance is only a function of the variation in relatedness and sample size.
*Each QTL was assumed to contribute equal variance; †scenarios are represented by xQTL_hy where x is the number of QTL and y is the value of heritability multiplied by 100.
