Paternities from Constable et al. (2001) in italics. Parentheses indicate that the genotype was unavailable for the individual. GLI and GLD were twins and were treated as a single conception.
*
Numbers of males and oestrous females were averaged across two swelling cycles.
†
Consortships were included in the less restrictive analysis but removed in the strict analysis of father strategy.
‡
Strategy was not assigned because of the lack of observations.
