Resorption in chimeras
Chimera type |
Non-resorption (%) |
Single resorption (%) |
Double resorption (%) |
Total number |
---|---|---|---|---|
Bichimera | 7.35 | 92.6 | NA | 204 |
Trichimera | 9.38 | 17.2 | 71.9 | 64 |
Linear | 5.88 | 13.5 | 80.4 | 52 |
Triangular | 25.0 | 33.0 | 42.0 | 12 |
Shown are the aggregate percentages of each type of resorption in both bi- and trichimeras (both linear and triangular) for all clutches in this study. Percentages are calculated as the number of chimeras in the resorption category out of the total number of chimeras in that group (final column).
NA = not appllicable.
