Table 2.

Fits for each model. (Constant-δ: equation (2.1); single-locus multiplicative, h=0: equation (2.2); single-locus multiplicative, h=0.02: equation (2.3); multi-locus: equation (2.4). Parameter estimates include their confidence intervals, and are δ, fitness reduction of inbred progeny; U, per-generation genomic mutation rate; St, threshold selfing rate. The p values are for a bootstrap comparison of the low-Φ and high-Φ parameter estimates, while offset indicates whether or not a non-biasing offset was used to improve model fit. For further details see the text.)
