Table 2.

Observed rates of transition to homozygosity during parthenogenesis and consistency with different modes of parthenogenesis. Nt, number of offspring from a heterozygous mother; No, number of transitions to homozygosity; R, observed rate of transition to homozygosity; r, expected rate (or range of rates) of transition to homozygosity (see table 1 in Pearcy et al. 2006). Fisher's exact tests of consistency of R-values with r; n.s., not significant; ***highly significant (p<0.001). When r is a range, the test was performed considering the r closed to R within the range.
