Snippet: Four variables were retained in the preferred model, which was back-selected, based on the AIC criterion, and using the raw data (non corrected for phylogeny) ( Table 6 ). Using the independent contrasts (variables controlled for phylogeny), the best model had the same four independent variables (Table 6 ).

Document: Four variables were retained in the preferred model, which was back-selected, based on the AIC criterion, and using the raw data (non corrected for phylogeny) ( Table 6 ). Using the independent contrasts (variables controlled for phylogeny), the best model had the same four independent variables (Table 6 ). Taking into account host sampling, we found that viral richness in bats was greater in large-bodied and widely distributed bats and when their geographical distribution was fragmented (Tables 5 & 6 ). There were no significant relationships between viral richness and migratory behaviour or roosting behaviour. Finally, greater fragmentation of the geographic distribution was highly associated with increased viral richness ( Table 7 , Figures 4A & 4B ).
