There are 23 independent vial responses. The intercept-only fit has 22 residual statistical degrees of freedom and deviance 33.631. Adding two day indicators removes two statistical degrees of freedom and reduces the residual deviance by . Adding the two species indicators then reduces it by . Thus the six replacements, in their printed order, are .
The residual deviance statistical degrees of freedom are , , and . These sequential analysis-of-deviance rows compare nested generalized linear models in the displayed order. In an unbalanced design, the first day row does not test day after controlling for species.
