Predictors of siring success among subordinate males
Predicted relationship between siring probability and (A) male age; (B) male rank score; (C) male-female genetic relatedness; (D) strength of the composite sociality index with the alpha male; and (E) count of strong association ties, among subordinate (i.e., non-alpha) males, using a restricted dataset of 45 siring events by subordinate males. Predictor variables are standardized within each period except for age, which was standardized across the entire dataset, and the genetic relatedness term. Error regions indicate 95% confidence intervals.
