Table 1.

Variation in paternity success in Oncorhynchus tshawytscha partitioned among the random effects of male, female (ovarian fluid, OF) and their interaction. The significance of each effect was tested using likelihood-ratio tests, where the log likelihood-ratio test statistic (LLR) is −2× the difference in log-likelihoods between hierarchically structured models (see main text). Significant p-values are indicated in italics.

random effects	Var	LLR	p
Male	1.13	47.52	<0.0001
OF	∼0	∼0	0.99
Male×OF	∼0	∼0	0.99
