Table 4.
Nest | Queen # | # of male mates per queen | Proportional contribution per queen | % non-detection error per queen |
---|---|---|---|---|
N1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0.9% |
N2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1.5% |
N3 | 1 | 1 | 0.85 | 0.6% |
N3 | 2 | 1 | 0.15 | 0.5% |
All queens were singly mated, with a very low probability of non-detection of additional male mates within each matriline. N1 and N2 had one queen each and N3 had two queens; the proportional contribution of each queen to offspring production is given per nest.
